Method

  1. Prepare the peppers: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice off the tops of the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes.

  2. Mix the filling: In a bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, black beans, diced tomatoes, and half the shredded cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. Stuff the peppers: Fill each bell pepper with the quinoa mixture and place them upright in a baking dish.

  4. Bake: Cover the dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil, sprinkle the remaining cheese on top, and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  5. Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro and serve warm.

Chef's Tip
