Lita's "Italian" Rice

Hey lovies! Sorry I haven't posted a recipe in a while. The past few weeks have been crazy and incredibly busy. Recently, my boyfriend and I have been trying to explore more vegetarian options for meals to help get us back on the healthy track! Here's an experiment that we both really liked.

1 cup of brown rice
1/2 a tomato
1/2 red or green bell pepper
1/4 medium size zucchini, sliced then chopped into quarters
3 cloves of fresh garlic, crushed
Dried Oregano
Parsley Flakes
Dried Basil
Black Pepper, coarsely ground
Salt, to taste
Olive Oil

In a small saucepan, put in water and rice. Bring to a boil and cook until rice is tender. Strain rice and set aside until vegetables are ready.
