GREEK-STYLE STUFFED BELL PEPPERS WITH QUINOA
This a Greek take on the classic beef stuffed pepper. Lemon, cinnamon, fennel and oregano spice up traditional ground beef and onions, while healthy quinoa adds extra fiber. There seem to be a lot of steps, but this one goes together in about 20 minutes. It works great if you have pre-browned ground beef in your freezer.

GREEK-INSPIRED STUFFED PEPPERS
Ground lamb is the main component for these Greek-inspired stuffed peppers. Add some rice and some traditional Greek flavors like onion, garlic, and fresh herbs to the bell pepper "boats". Garnish with feta cheese crumbles, chopped tomatoes, and tzatziki for a colorful and delicious main course. We like this with buttery new potatoes with leeks and parsley, and a green vegetable or salad. Add a hearty bread, if you aren't counting carbs!

LENTIL-QUINOA-STUFFED PEPPERS
By Ulli Stachl Television Food Producer, Food Stylist and Culinary Consultant. Getting your daily intake of fiber doesn't need to be boring. This fun recipe uses two fiber-rich ingredients that will keep you full all day long. Feel free to use other lentils (green, yellow, red) instead of the black. You can also vary the herbs with parsley, cilantro and so on. The same goes for the topping; try putting some avocado slices, sour cream or cheese on the peppers before serving. Remember, recipes should always be looked at as an inspiration to expand on. Be adventurous and have fun cooking and eating.

- Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl until well combined. You will only use 2 tablespoons of the seasoning, so you will have some leftover. Store the remainder in an empty spice jar or a mason jar. It will last for up to 1 year. Sprinkle in salads, rice, burgers, over chicken; you can add it to pretty much anything.
- Bring a medium-sized pot of water to a boil. Place the pepper halves into the boiling water and boil for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the peppers have softened slightly. Remove the peppers, draining off any excess water. Place them in a large baking dish. You may have to work your peppers in two batches depending on how big your pot is.
- Once the frozen spinach has been defrosted and is cool to the touch (if you used your microwave to defrost), place the spinach in a clean tea towel, wrap the tea towel around the spinach and squeeze as much moisture out of the spinach as possible. Add the spinach to a medium-sized mixing bowl, using your fingers to break it up.
