Quinoa Stuffed Peppers

Ingredients

1 package Nasoya Teriyaki or Sesame Ginger TofuBaked, cut into 1/4 inch pieces
1 1/2 cups water
3/4 cup quinoa, rinsed & 2 1/2 cups cooked quinoa
1 cup cut-up broccolini or broccoli, steamed
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sriracha sauce
4 large bell peppers

Directions

  1. In a 2 quart saucepan, heat water and quinoa to boiling; reduce heat.  Cover and simmer 11 to 13 minutes or until water is absorbed and quinoa is tender.  Remove from heat.  Stir in tofu, broccolini, green onions, soy sauce and sriracha sauce.
  2. Heat over to 350 degrees.
  3. Cut thin slice from stem of each bell pepper to remove top of pepper.  Reserve stems for garnish.  Remove seeds and membranes; rinse peppers.  If necessary, cut thin slice from bottom of each pepper so they stand upright.  Stuff peppers with quinoa mixture.  Place in ungreased 8 inch square baking dish.  Bake uncovered 25-35 minutes or until stuffing is hot.  Garnish with pepper tops.
