INGREDIENTS
1 large red bell pepper
1 ounce pepperoni (sliced)
1/4 cup shredded golden mozzarella
2 large eggs
1 large egg white
1/4 cup cooked quinoa
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cut the red bell pepper in half lengthwise and remove the seeds to create two sturdy 'boats'.
In a bowl, whisk together the 2 whole eggs and the egg white until smooth.
Chop the pepperoni into small pieces and mix it into the eggs along with the cooked quinoa and shredded golden mozzarella. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
Spoon the mixture evenly into the hollowed bell pepper halves, ensuring they are well filled.
Place the stuffed peppers on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the egg mixture is set and the cheese is golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
