Roasted buckwheat makes these vegan stuffed peppers a hearty-tasting dish! Gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, and vegan. Serve with hot spaghetti sauce, if desired.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- ½ cup kasha (toasted buckwheat groats)
- 1 ¼ cups vegetable broth
- 2 tomatoes, chopped
- ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 4 large green bell peppers
Directions
Step 1
Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic until onion is almost clear but not browning, about 5 minutes. Add buckwheat; stir until coated, about 1 minute. Add broth and bring to a boil. Simmer until liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Add tomatoes, parsley, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir until heated through, about 3 minutes.
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 3
Remove tops and seeds from peppers. Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add peppers, cover, and steam until tender, about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Stand peppers up in a casserole dish and fill them with the buckwheat mixture.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until browned, about 15 minutes.
Cook’s Notes:
Cilantro can be substituted for the parsley.
