5-8 red bell peppers
1 1/2 cups quinoa
3 cups water
1 tub fresh salsa (mango salsa is good)
1 can corn
1 can beans (black, pinto, kidney - whatever you have in the pantry)
2 cups cheese (cheddar, mexican, mozarella - pick your favorite)
1/2 onion, diced
2-3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1. Place quinoa and water in rice cooker. Turn rice cooker on.
2. Slice peppers in half lengthwise and remove seeds. You can remove the stem if desired. Place pepper halves in boiling water and boil until peppers just begin to soften (about 5 minutes). Remove peppers from water and place on a jelly roll pan (or a couple of 9x13 pans) lined with foil (for easy clean up).
3. Dice the onion and saute with a little vegetable oil. Cook until onions are translucent.
4. Add beans, corn, and salsa to the onions and stir to combine. Cook until all ingredients are warm.
5. Add prepared quinoa to the filling mixture. Stir to combine.
6. Spoon the filling mixture into the peppers and top with cheese.
7. Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes or until cheese melts.
