I can't think of anything more inviting right now than shrimp in a cast-iron skillet on the stove top, except for maybe shrimp marinated in Jerk sauce. Yes, the Jamaican delight with scotch-bonnet peppers, usually served with chicken. 

It started out I had some guacamole to use up, and that led to shrimp. Which led to roasted shrimp. Which made me think of the cast-iron skillet. Leftover rice. Made me think of a salad. And yes I have blueberries. And it all come together in under 20 minutes.
Altogether magnifique! 

Thinking about: sweet potatoes, lime slices, avocado slices, black beans, and rice?

This roasted veggie and black bean rice bowls not only makes for a great lunch, but it also makes great leftovers. Prep Time 10 minutes -- Cook Time 30 minutes -- Total Time 40 minutes
