Stuffed Bell Peppers with Quinoa and Black Beans

Recipes :

4 whole Green Pepper

1 tablespoon Olive Oil

1 small finely diced Onion

2 cloves minced Garlic

1 cups Quinoa

1 can Black Beans

1 can Sweetcorn

1 cup Sweetcorn

1 can Cumin

½ tsp Chili Powder

½ tsp Smoked Paprika

To taste Salt

To taste Pepper

1 1/2 cup Shredded Mexican Cheese

Chopped Cilantro

Instructions :

  • 1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or a similar-sized casserole dish.
  • 2. Place the bell pepper halves in the prepared baking dish, cut side up. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until slightly softened.
  • 3. While the bell peppers are baking, prepare the filling. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, and cook for 3-4 minutes, until softened. Add the garlic, and cook for another 1 minute, until fragrant.
  • 4. Stir in the cooked quinoa, black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, ground cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, until heated through. Remove the skillet from heat, and stir in 1 cup of the shredded cheese, if using.
  • 5. Remove the bell peppers from the oven, and carefully stuff each pepper half with the quinoa and black bean mixture. Top the stuffed peppers with the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheese, if using.
  • 6. Return the stuffed peppers to the oven, and bake for another 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the peppers are tender.
  • 7. Remove from the oven, and allow the stuffed peppers to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro.
