Zucchini, Black Bean, and Rice Skillet image

This was stolen directly from Readyseteat.com. Our family really enjoyed it and I loved how easy, inexpensive and healthy it was. I use instant brown rice (and just cook it a little longer) and vegi stock in place of the water. Feel free to add sour cream, avocado, jalepenos or whatever floats your boat!
