Quinoa Stuffed Bell Pepper & St. Patrick’s Day Green Food

Hello everyone,

Happy happy Friday Bloggie friends! What a relief that it’s already Friday! I am so ready for the weekend!

For today I’m not only posting a yummy new recipe of me but I also link-up with Davida for her great St. Patrick’s Day Green Food link-up!

I hope you don’t mind me linking-up though my picture isn’t really green. The photo is not brand new and therefore I had to go with what I had already made. But obviously my quinoa stuffed bell pepper recipe can be made totally of green bell pepper of course and additionally I’m giving you a recipe recap of all my mainly green recipes 🙂 Enjoy all the green food!

Quinoa Stuffed Bell Pepper

Ingredients (serves 3)

• 1/2 cup dry quinoa
• 1 green bell pepper, chopped
• 3 bell peppers (which ever color you fancy) cut in halves
• 1 spring onion, chopped
• 200 g tomato, chopped
• 1 clove of garlic
• 300 g spinach
• juice of 1 lemon
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 100 g cheese
• 1,5 tbsp cumin
• 1,5 tbsp hot bell pepper powder
• 1 tbsp chili powder
• salt and pepper

Directions

• Cook the quinoa and set aside
• Give all the veggie (except the spinach) into a big bowl
• Stir the spinach and garlic in a frying pan until cooked and add to the bowl of veggies
• Now add the spices and quinoa to the veggies
• Give in the lemon juice, soy sauce and cheese and mix well
• Stuff your bell pepper halves with the quinoa mix and bake at 200°C for approximately 10 min until lightly brown

It’s so yummy and healthy and perfect for food prep. You can just make a batch of those on the weekend and take them to work as a side or main dish. It should be good in the fridge for minimum 3 days.

So and now let’s celebrate all the green food 🙂
