Quinoa Stuffed Mini Peppers

Easy. Simple. Delicious.  

An all-in-one appetizer, side to accompany dinner, or healthy afternoon snack.  This was one of those “come together” moments.  I had the quinoa cooked, I’d already steamed the kale, and I was chopping up peppers when I thought- why don’t we put this together! And this recipe was born!  Enjoy! 

Ingredients: 

6-8 mini peppers

2 c steamed chopped kale 

1 c cooked quinoa

1/4 c (extra) diced peppers & red onion

Feta cheese, optional 

Directions:

Cook quinoa according to package.  Steam kale until dark green.   Sauté extra diced peppers and onions in skillet with 2 tbsp water.  Slice mini peppers in half, top to bottom. Toss quinoa, kale, sautéed veggies in a bowl and scoop into peppers.  Optional: top with feta cheese. Enjoy!
