How to make it

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Carefully halve the bell peppers lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes. You can keep them whole and just cut off the top if you prefer more of a "bowl".

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, rinsed black beans, frozen corn, and salsa. Stir everything together until it's well mixed.

  3. 3

    Spoon the quinoa and bean mixture generously into each bell pepper half. Arrange the stuffed peppers in a baking dish.

  4. 4

    Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the filling is heated through. If you like, you can add a little extra salsa on top before serving.

  5. 5

    Serve these colorful and satisfying peppers as a main course. They're deliciously wholesome!
