INGREDIENTS
2 medium Bell Peppers (approx. 240g total)
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa (approx. 120g)
1/2 cup Black Beans (approx. 130g)
1/4 cup Corn (approx. 40g)
200g Extra-Firm Tofu
1/4 cup Crumbled Feta Cheese (approx. 28g)
1/4 cup Diced Tomatoes (approx. 45g)
2 tbsp Chopped Red Onion (approx. 15g)
1 tbsp Lime Juice (approx. 15g)
Mixed Spices (Cumin, Chili Powder, Salt, and Pepper) to taste
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro, chopped
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the tops off the bell peppers and remove seeds and membranes. Lightly brush the insides with a little lime juice and set aside.
Press the extra-firm tofu with a paper towel to remove excess water and crumble it into small bite-size pieces.
In a medium bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, chopped red onion, crumbled tofu, and crumbled feta cheese.
Season the filling with mixed spices including cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Add the remaining lime juice and chopped cilantro, then stir to mix well.
Stuff the bell peppers with the quinoa mixture, pressing it in firmly.
Place the stuffed peppers in a baking dish. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the bell peppers are tender and the filling is heated through.
Garnish with additional cilantro if desired and serve warm.
