Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • ½ cup chopped onion
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 cup cooked brown rice
  • 1 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 10-ounce can diced tomatoes and green chilies, undrained
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoons Taco Seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Fresh cilantro, to taste
  • 6 medium bell peppers (green, orange, red, and/or yellow)
  • Toppings: Sliced avocado, green onions, sliced olives

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion. Cook 3-5 minutes or until softened.
  • Lower heat, and add garlic. Cook 30 seconds, stirring often so garlic doesn’t burn. Add rice, black beans, tomatoes and chiles, lime juice, Taco Seasoning, and salt. Cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • While sauce is cooking, prepare peppers. Cut in half lengthwise, and remove stems and seeds. Place peppers in boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain in colander, and place in a large baking dish, cut side up.
  • When sauce is finished, spoon mixture into pepper halves (about ¼ to 1/3 cup, depending upon pepper size). Add hot water to baking dish to a depth of ½ inch. Bake uncovered for 20 minutes.

Notes

  • Use Salsa instead of canned diced tomatoes and green chiles (if you already have a batch that's ready).
  • Add corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen) to mixture.
  • Substitute pinto beans for black beans.
  • Use quinoa instead of rice.
  • If you like this dish, try Greek-Style Stuffed Peppers.

This was wonderful. I liked the filling without the pepper also. I think I made add corn next time instead of the rice.

I made these earlier this week and they were very tasty! Today, I made “the filling” using the same recipe, minus the rice, and added in chickpea pasta instead (I didn’t use bell peppers at all). Sooooo good! I love that the chickpea noodles give me some protein. I need all I can get on the Daniel Fast! 🙂 Thanks for the great recipes, Kristen!

girl reading bible“Before you pray, bow quietly before God, just to remember and realize who He is, how near He is, how certainly He can and will help. Just be still before Him, and allow His Holy Spirit to waken and stir in your soul the childlike disposition of absolute dependence and confident expectation.” – Andrew Murray
