    Easy Beef Stuffed Peppers with Quinoa or Brown Rice

    1
    By Alisa Fleming on November 10, 2007 Dairy-Free Recipes, Entrees

    I don’t think the simple name of this recipe does it justice. Yes, they are beef stuffed peppers, but they are also layered with rich flavor. Each colorful bell pepper is filled with quinoa or brown rice that’s simmered in olive, stock, and red wine, and spiked with chilis and sun-dried tomatoes. It’s a dish that’s easy enough for a weeknight, but worthy of a more formal dinner.
