Stuffed Bell Peppers

I had a craving for some stuffed bell peppers, and here is what I came up with! The savory filling complements the sweetness of the peppers perfectly. 

Serves 5
Ingredients

• 5 bell peppers
• 1/2 c quinoa
• 1 can of of any white bean (I used Great Northern) (drained/rinsed)
• 1/4 c cooked spinach
• 1/2 c bread crumbs
• 1/2 tsp garlic salt
• 1 tbsp tamari
• 1/2 tsp cumin
• 1/2 tsp oregano
• salt + pepper to taste
• walnuts (optional)
• cheese for topping (optional)

Instructions 
Wash/remove seeds from the peppers. 
Cut off the tops (this will serve as a "lid").
Preheat the oven to 400F.
Add one cup water of water to the quinoa and let it come to a boil. Let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes or until the quinoa becomes fluffy. 
Mix the beans, quinoa, bread crumbs, spinach, and spices together.
Spoon the filling into the peppers. At this point, I also added some grated Babybel cheese on top. 
Put the tops back on the bell peppers, and they're ready to go in the oven!
Bake at 400 for 20-25 minutes. 
I also added some chopped walnuts on top.
