Indulge in a satisfying feast of savory stuffed peppers filled with a hearty mix of quinoa, mushrooms, zucchini, and white beans. Baked to perfection, each bite rewards you with wholesome plant-based protein and delightful textures.
Preheat the oven to 350 Fahrenheit and prepare a baking dish by lightly greasing it with some coconut oil.

Arrange the prepared bell peppers cut side up in the baking dish.
3
In a large skillet, heat the coconut oil over medium heat then sauté the onions until translucent, about 5 minutes.
4
Add the garlic, mushrooms and zucchini to the skillet, and continue to sauté until vegetables are tender, around 6 to 8 minutes.
5
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.
6
Stuff each prepared bell pepper with the quinoa filling, then spoon the remaining marinara sauce over top.
7
Bake in the preheated oven for around 30 minutes, or until the peppers are tender.
