This one-pan vegan meal is next-level! You'll cook black beans and pearl couscous with scallions, Mexican spices, and our savory, spicy Tex-Mex Paste. Toss with green bell pepper for bright, crunchy contrast, top with a dollop of guacamole mixed with scallion, tomato, and lime, then finish with a flourish of herbaceous cilantro to tie it all together.

Cooking Oil
• Wash and dry produce. • Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Drain and rinse beans. Dice tomato into 1⁄2-inch pieces. Roughly chop cilantro. Quarter lime. Halve, deseed, and dice bell pepper into 1⁄2-inch pieces.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites, Mexican Spice Blend, and half the cumin (all for 4 servings); cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, 30 seconds. • Stir in beans, couscous, Tex-Mex paste, 1 cup water, and 1 tsp sugar (2 cups water and 2 tsp sugar for 4); bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until couscous is tender, 6-8 minutes. (You’ll finish the couscous in Step 4.)
• While couscous cooks, in a small bowl, combine guacamole, tomato, scallion greens, half the cilantro, juice from half the lime, salt, and pepper.
• Once couscous is done, stir in bell pepper. (If mixture seems dry, add water 1 tsp at a time until desired consistency is reached.) Taste and season with salt if desired. • Divide black bean couscous between shallow bowls. Top with guacamole and remaining cilantro. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.
