Stuffed Bell Peppers

Stuffed Bell Peppers .. SUCH a crowd pleaser. These stuffed peppers are made with a mushroom onion mixture that is SO flavorful, it will make you want more. It’s super easy to make, made with minimal ingredients, and it’s gluten free and has no added oil. This dish definitely gives me fall vibes.

What can I put in the stuffing?

Anything you want really. My favorite is a mixture of chopped up mushrooms and onions with simple spices. It's simple, but so delicious. You can also stuff these with minced up soy curls - to have a 'beef'y type of consistency. Another great mixture is mixed vegetables - zucchini, onions, corn, etc - with spices and herbs. The best part about this recipe is to get creative and experiment, it doesn't have to be the same thing over and over again. Stuffed Bell Peppers (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
