Mexican Quinoa Stuffed Peppers #vegan #vegetarian #soup #breakfast #lunch

These fun and bright stuffed peppers are a party for the eyes and the mouth 😉 everything begins with a delectable (and fantastically simple) Mexican-style quinoa loading up with huge amounts of flavor… stuffed in a pretty pepper bundle! When it takes the quinoa to cook, you can have everything prepared and prepared to go. At that point simply let the stove take the necessary steps!

It's a fun formula to alter dependent on your own preferences or what you have available. Swap out the dark beans for pinto beans, include a container of diced tomatoes for a juicier filling (we cherish this!), swap out the quinoa for rice, or include some zest with smoky chipotle, and so on. They're extraordinary filled in as seems to be, or with any ideal garnishes (guacamole/avocado is my top choice). Expectation you appreciate them as well – let the pepper gathering begin!

INGREDIENTS

• STUFFED PEPPERS
• 4 large bell peppers
• 3/4 cup quinoa (dry, uncooked)
• 15 oz. can black beans
• 1 cup corn (I use frozen, thawed)
• 2 green onions
• 2/3 cup salsa
• 2 Tbsp. nutritional yeast (I use this brand)
• 1 1/2 tsp. cumin
• 1 tsp. smoked paprika
• 1 tsp. chili powder
• TOPPINGS OF CHOICE
• Guacamole, salsa, dairy-free sour cream, hot sauce, etc.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Cook quinoa according to package directions with 1 1/2 cups water/broth. (I often use vegetable broth in place of water for more flavor.)
2. Meanwhile, halve bell peppers and remove stems, seeds and ribs.
3. Rinse and drain black beans, thaw corn, and slice green onions.
4. In a large mixing bowl, add cooked quinoa and all other ingredients except bell peppers. Stir to combine, and adjust taste if necessary (salt, more seasonings, nutritional yeast).
5. Preheat oven to 350.
6. In a 9×13″ baking dish, place pepper halves, and generously stuff them with the quinoa filling. Lightly press down to compact and fill all the crevices.
