STUFFED PEPPERS WITH QUINOA
Quinoa adds crunch, corn lends sweetness and color, and red pepper flakes ratchet up the heat in these tender stuffed peppers. Whole wheat rolls or breadsticks and a pitcher of iced tea make for a standout supper. -Joyce Moynihan, Lakeville, Minnesota

BEEF AND QUINOA STUFFED BELL PEPPERS
I made this recipe for a challenge in the Culinary Quest. Since I had quinoa to use up and wasn't sure what I was going to use it for, I decided to pretend it was rice. I used two other recipes to make this. The first being Recipe #16399 by dibs. Then prepared it like Debbwl suggested... Recipe #415970. I hope you enjoy this dish. *Note: Prep and Cook times do not include toasting of quinoa or resting times.

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.
