INGREDIENTS
1 medium red bell pepper
3/4 cup cooked quinoa
1/2 cup black beans (rinsed)
1/4 cup fire-roasted diced tomatoes
1/8 cup corn kernels
1/4 cup diced red onion
1/4 cup fat-free shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the top off the red bell pepper and carefully remove the seeds and membranes.
In a bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, black beans, fire-roasted tomatoes, corn, and diced red onion.
Stir in the ground cumin, chili powder, and chopped cilantro, then drizzle in the olive oil and mix well.
Stuff the red bell pepper with the quinoa and black bean mixture, pressing it in firmly.
Place the stuffed pepper on a baking dish and cover lightly with foil.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until the pepper is tender.
Remove the foil, sprinkle the fat-free shredded cheddar cheese over the pepper, and return to the oven for another 5 minutes until the cheese is melted.
Serve hot with a generous dollop of nonfat Greek yogurt on top.
