Ingredients

1 cup cooked brown rice, cooled completely
1 15 oz can black beans, drained and washed
1 red bell pepper, diced
4 green onions (tops and stems), finely sliced
1 bunch cilantro, chopped

2 avocados, cubed
1/2 cup lime juice (or more, to taste)
2 tsp cumin (or more)
2 cloves garlic, chopped

Directions:

Cook brown rice according to directions on package and cool completely. In a large mixing bowl (at least 12 cup capacity), put the rice, black beans, red bell pepper, green onions, cilantro, tomatoes, corn, shredded chicken, and avocados. In a separate bowl, mix the lime juice, cumin, garlic, salt, and pepper. Pour over the salad ingredients and mix thoroughly. Add more seasonings, if needed.
