Quinoa Stuffed Peppers Recipes

Black beans and quinoa provide plenty of protein- no fake meat needed! I really like these served with seasoned sweet potato fries.

My healthier version of a favorite!

Dinner time!

Gluten, dairy, and soy free quinoa stuffed bell peppers.

A great meatless meal with lots of protein and fiber.

Delicious family favorite!

Makes for some deliciously nutritious stuffed peppers.

It took some digging and tweaking, but here's a yummy sounding recipe that I can't wait for us to try! Let me know what you think. Modified from a Vegetarian Times recipes with high rating! There will be a LOT of filling left over, save for next day's wrap or burrito for lunch.

This recipe makes 8 large servings. The recipe calls for RED only because I couldn't find whole GREEN peppers in the list. It takes some time to prepare, but can be made in advance and put in the oven when needed. Lean turkey, high protein quinoa and vegetables make it a healthy way to eat a dinner that actually makes you feel like you ate something substantial.

A yummy protein packed dinner or side dish!

A healthy take on stuffed peppers!

This can be made vegan by omitting the beef/cheese. This is a great recipe to make for a mixed family of meat/non-meat eaters. I'll make a batch of these and make half of them meat free and add meat to the other half for the rest of the family. :)

A whole grain option to stuffed green peppers!

This colorful dish is around 300 calories per serving and is verrrry filling!

You will likely have extra stuffing than what will fit in the 10 peppers, but you can always heat it up and serve over greens for a great leftover lunch!

healthy version!

Healthy alternative to rice-stuffed peppers. And any left-over stuffing easily makes a nice salad the next day when lemon juice or salad dressing is added. Also works well as a good egg white omlet ingredient!

Think of this as vegetarian goulash, deconstructed! I make this to remind my boyfriend of his recent trip to Prague!
