Delicious Quinoa Stuffed Bell Peppers
Ingredients
- 6 bell peppers, seeded
- 2 cups cooked quinoa
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 carrot peeled and diced
- 90g baby corn, diced
- 90g green beans, diced
- 1/2 small onion diced
- Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation
Heat 2 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add carrots, onion, green beans, baby corn and garlic, and season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Saute for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables are soft.
Increase heat to high, add the cooked quinoa and stir until combined. Continue stirring for an additional 1-2 minutes to fry the quinoa. Remove from heat.
To prepare the peppers, remove the 'lids' of the 6 yellow peppers with a knife and also discard all the seeds. Fill the peppers with quinoa. Place the stuffed peppers into the prepared baking dish and bake at 180 for about 25-30 minutes or until the peppers are softened but not mushy
