Time 1h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup uncooked brown rice
2 ¼ cups water
4 red bell peppers, tops and seeds removed
1 teaspoon olive oil
¼ onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 (15 ounce) can black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained
2 large Swiss chard leaves, chopped
salt and black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Bring the brown rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed, 45 to 50 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Place the red peppers on the prepared baking sheet, and bake until tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, and cook and stir the onion and garlic until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the black-eyed peas and chard. Bring the mixture to a simmer, and cook until the chard is wilted, 5 to 8 minutes. Mix in the cooked brown rice, sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste, and lightly stuff the mixture into the red peppers. Serve hot.

I'm not a big fan of bell peppers, but this recipe changed my mind. The filling was so flavorful that I didn't even notice the bell peppers.
