INGREDIENTS
1 large bell pepper
1/2 cup cooked quinoa
1 cup black beans
1/4 cup corn
1/4 cup diced tomatoes
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
3 oz extra firm tofu
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp smoked paprika
Salt and black pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the top off the bell pepper and remove the seeds and membranes. Set aside the pepper cap if desired for presentation.
In a bowl, gently mix the cooked quinoa, black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, crumbled feta, and cubed tofu.
Season the mixture with cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir to ensure even distribution of spices.
Stuff the bell pepper with the quinoa and bean mixture, packing it in well.
Place the stuffed pepper in a small baking dish. If you like, you can drizzle a tiny amount of water or cover with the reserved pepper top to help trap moisture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until the pepper is tender and the filling is heated through.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
