Bajan Black Beans and Rice

1 T Better Than Bouillon Vegetarian
3 cups water 
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 habanero pepper, minced
4 tomatoes (from a can of whole tomatoes), chopped
1 cup brown rice, uncooked
3 zucchini, chopped
2 cans black beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup frozen corn
1/2 cup cilantro leaves, chopped

Heat 3 cups of water and mix in bouillon.  Set aside.  Note: any broth
may be used, I just happen to like Better Than Bouillon especially.
Saute garlic, onion, and red, green, and habanero peppers in 1/2 cup
of broth in large pot for 10 minutes.  Add remaining broth, tomatoes,
and rice and simmer covered for 15 minutes.  Add zucchini and simmer
for an additional 30 minutes.  Stir occasionally to keep from
sticking.  Add black beans, corn, and cilantro and cook an additional
5 minutes to heat through.

Freezes well.
