INGREDIENTS
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
0.75 cup cooked Quinoa
0.5 cup Black Beans
4 oz Extra Firm Tofu
1 oz Feta Cheese
0.25 cup Shelled Edamame
1 tbsp Lime Juice
1 tbsp chopped Cilantro
1 tsp Ground Cumin
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the top off the red bell pepper and remove the seeds and membranes.
In a bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, black beans, crumbled extra firm tofu (slightly mashed), feta cheese, and shelled edamame.
Add lime juice, chopped cilantro, ground cumin, salt, and pepper to the mixture. Stir gently to evenly combine the flavors.
Fill the hollowed bell pepper with the quinoa mixture, pressing gently to compact the filling.
Place the stuffed pepper in a baking dish and cover lightly with foil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pepper is tender and the filling is heated through.
Remove the foil during the last 5 minutes of baking if you prefer a slightly crisp top.
Serve warm and enjoy your zesty, protein-packed meal.
