El olivo' Organic White Quinoa stuffed Bell pepper

This is a great one-dish meal option, especially when you are alone. It needs very little prep,
almost makes itself, and tastes fabulous!

Serves: 1

Ingredients:

       1 large red or yellow bell pepper
       2-3 baby corn, chopped
        1 small shallot, chopped 
¼ cup El Olivo organic white quinoa cooked in ½ cup water 


         2-3 Olea Europaea sundried tomatoes in olive oil, chopped 
Sea Salt to taste 
1 teaspoon Olive Tree extra virgin olive oil
 ½ teaspoon red chili powder
1 tablespoon of mozzarella  (grated)  



2-3 basil leaves, chopped 
                                                                                                    


     Method:
Heat oil in a pan. Add the garlic, shallot, and baby corn. Sauté until fragrant. Add the chopped sundried tomatoes, chili powder, salt, and basil. Tip in the quinoa. Toss to mix. Core the inside of a bell pepper to remove seeds. Fill the cavity with the quinoa mixture. Top with grated mozarella and bake at 200 degrees centigrade for 10-15 minutes or until the bell pepper is slightly charred and the cheese is melting. Serve hot.
