Quinoa Unstuffed Peppers
The name Quinoa Unstuffed Peppers may sound confusing but there is nothing confusing about how good this Israeli inspired dish really is.
Instead of the usual, more common recipe, of giant red and green peppers stuffed with a rice and ground meat mixture, I have unstuffed the peppers, chopped them and added them to the mix with quinoa, Italian sausage and the perfect amount of seasonings.
To make Quinoa Unstuffed Peppers, you will need the following ingredients:
Steps to make Quinoa Unstuffed Peppers
1 | Cook quinoa | 15 |
In a small saucepan, bring 1½ cup of vegetable stock to a boil and then add ¾ cup of rinsed quinoa. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for about 12-15 minutes until all the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat. | ||
2 | Cook meat mixture | 10 |
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, combine 1 pound of crumbled turkey sausage, 1 chopped sweet red pepper, 1 chopped green pepper and ¾ cup of chopped sweet onion. Cook for 8-10 minutes until no longer pink. | ||
3 | Add garlic and seasoning | 1 |
Add 1 clove of minced garlic, ¼ teaspoon of garam masala, ¼ teaspoon of pepper and ⅛ teaspoon of salt. Cook while stirring for about 1 minute until fragrant. | ||
4 | Add quinoa | 1 |
Stir in the cooked quinoa and mix well. | ||
5 | Serve | |
Serve hot and enjoy! | ||

This is something new that I haven't tried in a while and it was worth it!
the taste was actually really good the presentation was average, hence the 4 stars.
Sausages in it seemed a bit stale but still the taste was absolutely amazing. I still do prefer the Classic stuffed peppers over this one though.
Loved the taste, the serving style and the quantity . Much recommended Recipe!
I would not experiment with this recipe, as It's already incredible! Made it for my anniversary dinner and we were both satisfied with how good it came out!
I have to admit the name got me really confused but the taste was epic!
Have to say, this was my first time trying this dish, but it was really good, thanks for sharing :)
The outer crust was just as tasty as the inner stuffing. The combination was perfection!
I come from Israel so I know it's not the best since I've had better, but it was really tasty nonetheless!
