  3. In the same skillet, add the diced bell peppers and sauté for 3-5 minutes until they begin to soften.
  4. Add the cooked brown rice to the skillet and stir well to combine with the peppers. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.

  6. Serve the mixture in bowls, garnishing each with lime wedges and optional feta cheese if desired.
