These stuffed bell peppers are not only delicious but a wonderful way to pack in nutrients and flavor all in one dish!

1

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).

2

Wash the bell peppers, slice the tops off, and remove the seeds. Place them upright in a baking dish.

3

In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until translucent.

4

Stir in the black beans, corn, cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix well and cook for another 5 minutes.

5

Add the tomato sauce and remove from heat. Stir in half of the cheddar cheese.

6

Stuff each bell pepper with the mixture and top with the remaining cheddar cheese.

7

Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

8

Remove the foil and bake for another 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

9

Let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

• Try adding quinoa or rice to the bean mixture for added texture.
