Yummy, easy, vegan meal! I have always wanted to make stuffed bell peppers, and for some reason, only now finally tried it out! How yummy and healthy! I even took some of the extras and froze them, and have since thawed them out, chopped them up, and placed in a salad.  Very versatile indeed 🙂

You need: 

2 large red bell peppers, cut in half and seeds removed

1 cup cooked quinoa

1.25 cup cooked black beans

1/2 tsp turmeric

1/4tsp ginger

1/8 tsp smoked paprika 

1/4 tsp crushed red pepper 

1/4 tsp black pepper

1/4 lemon squeezed

1/4 cup chopped red onion

4 tbs chopped chives

Optional vegan cheddar to top to bake

cilantro to garnish 

Simply mix all ingredients together and stuff inside peppers. Place on parchment paper, top with cheese, bake at 375 for 30min, then garnish with cilantro, serve with fresh greens, salsa, greet yogurt, avocado.

Enjoy!
