Slow Cooker Vegan Brown Rice Mexican Bowl from Kalyn's Kitchen featured on Slow Cooker or Pressure Cooker at SlowCookerFromScratch.com

This recipe for Slow Cooker Mexican Rice Bowls is so delicious and perfect when you want a meal that cooks in a few hours in the slow cooker without heating up the house! I’ve made quite a few meatless dishes in the slow cooker, but this might be the best meatless slow cooker recipe I’ve made, and it’s even vegan, for people who are interested in that!

For this easy rice bowl meal, brown rice and onions cook in the slow cooker until the rice is nearly done; then you add chopped red and green bell pepper, canned black beans, and diced green chiles and cook until the rice is tender. Serve the flavorful rice mixture with a topping of poblano-avocado salsa, for a delicious plant-based meal that’s healthy and loaded with flavor.


What ingredients do you need for this recipe?

  • Uncle Ben’s Brown Rice (affiliate link)
  • vegetable stock or canned vegetable broth
  • onion
  • red bell pepper
  • green bell pepper
  • diced green chiles (affiliate link)
  • canned black beans
  • salt to taste
  • tomato
  • Poblano pepper
  • green onion
  • fresh cilantro
  • avocado
  • fresh lime juice, I used my fresh-frozen lime juice
  • olive oil
  • ground cumin (affiliate link)

Why is this recipe a favorite for me?

These days a recipe like this that has both brown rice and black beans is definitely a splurge on carbs for me! And it’s partly the Poblano-Avocado salsa that makes me like it so much. I’d probably eat mine with more salsa and less rice and beans, but take your choice on that.

Recommended Slow Cooker Size:

I used my favorite 3 Quart Crock-Pot Slow Cooker (affiliate link) for this recipe, but any slow cooker that’s close to that size will work.
