How to:
Preheat the oven to 375 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Toss the chopped sweet potatoes, bell peppers, olive oil, salt and pepper on the baking sheet and mix to incorporate. Cook for about 25-minutes.

Heat olive oil in a medium pan. Once hot, add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes then add the garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Next, stir in all the spices, vegetable broth and pinto beans. Turn the heat down to low, and allow the beans to cook down for about 7-minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated. Remove from the heat and set aside.

Assemble the bowls with rice, spinach, roasted sweet potatoes, bell peppers, pinto beans, microgreens, corn chips (optional) and drizzle on the magic Mexican green cilantro sauce.
