Ingredients

  • 6 Bell Peppers tops cut off and seeded
  • 2 cups Quinoa cooked
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 Carrot peeled and diced
  • 90 g Baby Corn diced
  • 90 g Green Beans diced
  • 1/2 small Onion diced
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Heat 2 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add carrots, onion, green beans, baby corn and garlic, and season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Saute for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables are soft. Increase heat to high, add the cooked quinoa and stir until combined. Continue stirring for an additional 1-2 minutes to fry the quinoa. Remove from heat.
  • To prepare the peppers, remove the “lids” of the 6 yellow peppers with a knife and also discard all the seeds.
