Hearty Vegetarian Quinoa-Stuffed Bell Peppers Recipe

Features:
    Cuisine:

    After buying too many peppers (they were on they sale rack for 4 for $0.40!), I needed something low-protein to do with them. I couldn't find anything here or in my recipe books, so I varied a Julia Child recipe for stuffed tomatoes, and made the flavor strong enough to compete with the pepper flavor (my husband doesn't like peppers). The result was the following. Even my husband liked it!
