If you’re in a bind at dinner time and have a couple of bell peppers laying around in your kitchen, one of the best dishes to prepare is stuffed peppers! Traditionally, this dish is made with ground meat like pork, beef, or chicken, but this dish is so adaptable and easy to make in a vegan version too.
Here are some stuffing ideas to lead you to vegan inspiration!
Black Beans
Stewing black beans along with spices and vegetables and adding them to the interior of a bell pepper is a flavor explosion that you need to try. This hearty option will leave you full and satisfied.
Quinoa
Quinoa is a superfood which has gained more and more popularity in recent years as a side dish and meal complement. It also goes great in stuffed pepper after preparing it in an aromatic mix of Italian herbs like parsley, oregano, and rosemary.
Rice
Rice is a staple stuffed pepper filling and is often mixed with meat, but it can work great on its own too. We like to add a dash of balsamic vinegar to rice before topping it with vegan cheese in order to make a truly unbeatable filling.
