The peppers can be made ahead of time and reheated, which makes them a great option for busy weeknights.

I topped the peppers with shredded cheese before baking them, and it gave them a nice golden brown crust.

I baked the peppers for 45 minutes instead of 30 minutes, and they came out perfect.

I didn't have any black beans, so I used pinto beans instead. They worked just as well.

I had some leftover rice, so I used that instead of quinoa. The peppers still turned out great.

The peppers were a bit spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I would recommend using a milder chili powder if you don't like spicy food.

I made a few substitutions (used ground turkey instead of beef, and added some extra spices) and the peppers still turned out delicious. This recipe is very versatile.
