Preheat the oven to 350 Fahrenheit and prepare a baking dish by lightly greasing it with some coconut oil.

In a large skillet, heat the coconut oil over medium heat then sauté the onions until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the cooked quinoa, cannellini beans, and 1 cup marinara sauce into the skillet. Season with the sea salt and black pepper and mix well to combine.

Stuff each prepared bell pepper with the quinoa filling, then spoon the remaining marinara sauce over top.
