Mexican Quinoa Stuffed Peppers

Fun and colorful Mexican Quinoa Stuffed Peppers! Easy fiesta-flavored quinoa with black beans and corn is stuffed into these pretty pepper packages for an awesome healthy meal! Vegan & gluten-free.

These fun & colorful stuffed peppers are a fiesta for the eyes and the mouth 😉 It all starts with a delicious (and incredibly easy) Mexican-style quinoa filling with TONS of flavor... stuffed in a pretty pepper package! By the time it takes the quinoa to cook, you can have everything prepped and ready to go. Then just let the oven do the work!

It's a fun recipe to customize based on your own tastes or what you have on hand. Swap out the black beans for pinto beans, add a can of diced tomatoes for a juicier filling (we love this!), swap out the quinoa for rice, or add some spice with smoky chipotle, etc. They're great served as is, or with any desired toppings (guacamole/avocado is my favorite). Hope you enjoy them too - let the pepper party commence!
