Mushroom Quinoa Stuffed Peppers

I love this dish for its simplicity in preparation and its complexity in taste. I try to buy peppers from my local farmer's market when they are in season, but when I can't these sweet mini peppers from Kroger's are SO clutch! They come in a bag for around $3 and are delicious.

First preheat your oven to 375, then prepare your filling:

1 Cup quinoa
2 Cups water
1 cube not chikn bouillon
1 Cup chopped mushrooms
1 Cup chopped kale
2 Tbl Braggs liquid aminos

In a medium saucepan, bring the quinoa and water to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and cover. Simmer for 10 minutes. Then, add the bouillon and simmer, covered, for another 5 minutes. Drain any excess and remove from heat.

Next heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium for 2 minutes. Add the Braggs, mushrooms and chopped kale and sauteé for about 2 minutes. Add the quinoa and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

Take your peppers and slice off the tops. Remove any seeds and toss in 1 Tbl olive oil. Stuff with your quinoa mix. Replace the tops of the peppers once they are stuffed, place in a shallow casserole dish and bake for 30 minutes.

Yay! Easy peasy!
