INGREDIENTS
4 oz lean ground beef
1 large red bell pepper
1/4 cup cooked quinoa
1/4 cup black beans
1/4 cup diced tomatoes
1/8 cup diced onion
1/4 cup low-fat mozzarella cheese
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Wash the red bell pepper. Carefully cut off the top and remove the seeds and membranes to create a hollow vessel.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the lean ground beef with the diced onion until the beef is browned and the onions are softened.
Stir in the diced tomatoes, cooked quinoa, and black beans into the beef mixture. Season with your preferred spices (such as salt, pepper, and a pinch of cumin) to enhance flavor.
Spoon the beef and vegetable mixture into the hollowed bell pepper, filling it evenly.
Top the stuffing with a sprinkle of low-fat mozzarella cheese.
Place the stuffed pepper in an oven-safe dish and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the pepper is tender.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
