Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp of fragrant olive oil
  • 1/2 cup of finely chopped onion
  • 1/2 cup of flavorful vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup of diced mushrooms
  • 2 tsp of freshly minced garlic
  • 1 tsp of aromatic Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp of tangy red wine vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp of sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp of spicy crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 cup of tenderly cooked brown lentils
  • 1 cup of delicate baby spinach leaves
  • 2 red bell peppers with their tops removed and seeds removed

Step 1

Begin by preheating your oven to a toasty 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a generously sized skillet, warm up some oil over medium-high heat. Toss in the onion and a splash of broth, letting them mingle for about 3 minutes. Next, introduce the mushrooms, garlic, a sprinkle of Italian seasoning, a dash of vinegar, a pinch of salt, and a hint of crushed red pepper flakes into the mix. Let everything sizzle together for a delightful 2 minutes before taking it off the heat. Stir in the lentils and vibrant spinach for an extra boost of nutrients.

Step 2

Now, it's time to prepare the bell peppers. Arrange them snugly in a baking dish, ready to be filled with the flavorful mixture you've just prepared. Divide the filling evenly between the two peppers, ensuring they are generously packed. Cover the dish with a snug foil blanket.

Step 3

Pop the dish into the preheated oven and let it bake for a cozy 20 minutes. Once done, uncover the dish and allow the peppers to continue baking for an additional 10 minutes, or until they reach your preferred level of tenderness. Enjoy this delectable dish hot out of the oven!

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Utilize the fridge's crisper drawer to keep your fresh bell peppers crisp and ready for stuffing.
  2. 2. Store cooked lentils in an airtight container in the fridge for quick and easy assembly later.
  3. 3. Preserve any leftover stuffed peppers by individually wrapping them in foil and freezing for future meals.
