Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking dish with parchment paper.
-
Start by cutting the tops off the bell peppers and removing the seeds and membranes. Place the peppers upright in the prepared baking dish.
-
In a medium saucepan, cook quinoa according to package instructions. Once cooked, set aside.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, diced tomatoes, chickpeas, olives, feta cheese, olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
-
Spoon the quinoa mixture into each bell pepper until they are filled to the top. Use the back of the spoon to press the mixture down gently.
-
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until the peppers are tender.
-
Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes to allow the cheese to melt and the tops of the peppers to slightly brown.
-
Once done, garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
