Servings

4

servings

Ingredients

  • 4 orange bell peppers

  • 2 cups cooked quinoa

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • 1 small yellow onion, diced

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 10 ounce package frozen spinach, defrosted

  • About 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  • Heat the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic and cook until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Add spinach and cook until wilted, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the quinoa, onion and spinach mixture, salt, pepper and Parmesan to a large bowl. Mix to combine.
  • Meanwhile, de-seed the peppers and cut off the tops. Using a sharp, small paring knife, cut out eye, nose and mouth holes into the front of the peppers (to make the jack-o’-lanterns).
  • Fill each pepper with about 1/2 cup of the quinoa mixture. Serve immediately.
