The base for this Buddha bowl is brown rice cooked with onions and sweetcorn along with the pinto beans I did the other day. For the pinto beans recipe check this link https://sarchakra.com/2020/05/04/pinto-beans/ The spices used in this recipe are minimal because the taste would naturally come from all the fresh vegetables used @sarchakra
