🌶️ Stuffed Bell Peppers for Vegans and Non-Vegans
Stuffed Bell Peppers for Vegans and Non-Vegans
You will need:
6 bell peppers
1 cup quinoa
2 cups vegetable broth
1 can black beans
1 cup corn
1 onion
2 cloves garlic
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp chili powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup shredded cheese (optional)
1/2 lb ground meat (optional)
Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds inside.
- In a saucepan, bring the vegetable broth to a boil, then add the quinoa. Lower the heat and let it simmer until the quinoa is cooked.
- While the quinoa is cooking, heat the olive oil in a pan. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent.
- Add the black beans, corn, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper to the pan. Stir until everything is well combined.
- Once the quinoa is cooked, add it to the pan and mix well.
- Spoon the quinoa mixture into the bell peppers, filling them up to the top.
- For the non-vegan version, cook the ground meat in a separate pan and add it on top of the quinoa mixture in the bell peppers. Top with shredded cheese.
- Place the stuffed bell peppers in a baking dish and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let the peppers cool for a few minutes before serving.
