Quinoa Stuffed Bell Peppers




These yummy beauties are so filling! Served with a side salad or pickled veggies is ideal!
The bell peppers were grown in my friend Melissa's home farm, and were huge!
I made this dish as a light lunch, but it ended up being a VERY filling meal!
The quantity of all the ingredients is really based on your preference. There is no specific amount - depends on how flavorful and/or salty/oily you like it!

Ingredients:
- Quinoa (cooked in veggie broth)
- lentils (cooked in simple spices)
- baby greens (chopped)
- onions (yellow and green - diced)
- olive oil
- salt and pepper
- garlic powder
- thyme
- oregano
- sage
- large bell peppers (cut off the top and clean out)


Directions:
I cooked the quinoa in veggie broth. I also cooked (separately) the lentils in water and spices. Nothing fancy.
In a bowl mix ALL the ingredients (minus the bell peppers!) together - and stuff the bell peppers.
Place on a cookie sheet over parchment paper.
Bake at 400F for 40 - 45 minutes.
I enjoy them with a little drizzle of Sriracha and tons of pickled fermented yumminess on the side!


Buon Appetito!
