Prep Time

Total Time
35-45 minutes
Yield: Serves 6
Ingredients
- 1 package Beyond Sausage® Brat Original or Beyond Sausage® Hot Italian (4 total)
- 3 cups cooked quinoa
- 1 (4-ounce) can green chilis
- 1 cup corn kernels
- ½ cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed
- ½ cup petite diced tomatoes
- ½ cup plant-based shredded pepper jack cheese
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon chili powder, or more to taste
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 6 bell peppers, tops cut, stemmed and seeded
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9×13 baking dish with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine quinoa, green chiles, corn, beans, tomatoes, plant-based pepper jack cheese, cilantro, cumin, garlic, onion and chili powder, salt and pepper, to taste.
- De-case the Beyond Sausage® links. In a pan, crumble the links and cook for about 4 minutes. Note: they will continue to cook in the oven, and you don’t want them to dry out.
- Spoon the filling into each bell pepper cavity. Place filled pepper in the prepared baking dish, cavity side up, and bake until the peppers are tender and the filling is heated through about 25-30 minutes.
- Serve and enjoy!
