Stuffed Peppers (Vegan/Vegetarian/Low Carb) step by step
- Ingredients Below (add in or take out whatever you like! I change this slightly every time I make them depending what's in my fridge). Adding chili sauce to the filling and or baking sauce is a winner! Adding Lentils is a good one also & you can't go wrong with some cheese stuffed in the top before you close the lid.
- In the food processor, combine the Mushrooms, Cauliflower, Garlic, Onion, Sweet Pepper, Spices & Herbs (set a small handful aside to mix in the baking tray sauce).
- Line the baking tray with canned tomatoes, stir in a handful or the stuffing mixture (adds flavour) and parsley..
- Cut the tops off the capsicums (if haven't already) & spoon the filling mixture into the capsicums. Replace the lid and place in tray of sauce.
- Bake for approx 30mins. Remove and serve (I like to sprinkle with Vegan or non Vegan Parmesan cheese).
You can add whatever you like in there, actually rice would be a very good option too to make it a complete meal in itself. Stuffed peppers are as versatile as they are healthy. You can really fill them with anything. Keep 'em veggie or stuff them with rice and ground turkey. And cheese — warm, melty, oozing cheese — is always welcome… unless you're vegan.
