1 pound of green beans (trimmed - ends cut off)
1 cup bone broth
1/2 cup basmati rice
2 tbsp avocado oil
avocado oil spray
juice of one lemon
1 tbsp salt
2 tbsp garlic powder
2 tbsp onion powder

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit
Bring bone broth to a boil in a pot, then add rice. Stir, cover the pot with a lid, and lower the heat to a simmer. Cook the rice for 22 minutes, then turn off the burner, and cook covered and untouched for another 7 minutes. After those 7 minutes, remove the lid and fluff with a fork.
Drizzle avocado oil over baking sheet
Cut the ends off the asparagus spears, and place on the oiled baking sheet with the green beans
Season the veggies with 1/2 tbsp salt, and 1 tbsp of each: garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, and turmeric. Place the baking sheet in the oven, and cook for 20 minutes, flipping veggies halfway.
Season tilapia filets with lemon juice (1/2 of the lemon), 1/2 tbsp salt, and 1 tbsp of each: garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder.
Spray the air fryer with avocado oil, and place the tilapia filets inside. Air fry at 375 for 15-18 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
To serve, add rice, tilapia, and veggies to a plate with a lemon wedge. Add hot sauce (Tapatio/Valentina) to the fish if desired.
