"I'm Stuffed" Peppers



Here's what you will need-

1 green bell pepper (helpful if you can find on that is even on the bottom, so it will sit flat in the oven)

Non-fat refried beans

White or Crimini mushrooms

Brown rice (cooked)

Salt and pepper

Tamari (gluten free soy sauce)

Margarine or butter


Let's get started- thoroughly rinse the green, pepper. Cut off the top, remove the seeds, and rinse again. Sit pepper on baking sheet or pie tin (covering the pan with aluminum foil makes clean up a breeze) and bake in 350 degree oven (about 10 mins) while prepping the remaining ingredients and any desired side items.
Rinse and chop mushrooms, lightly sauté in small amount of butter.
Remove pepper from oven and drizzle a little Tamari inside. Carefully layer the rice, beans, and mushrooms alternating ingredients and seasoning with salt and pepper as you go. The top layer should be brown rice, over which you can pour a little more tamari if desired.
Allow to finish baking (about 20-25 mins) and cool briefly... Enjoy!
