Ingredients

1 cup cooked rice
3 medium bell peppers (any color)
1 tbsp vegetable oil
½ medium white onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup mushrooms (roughly chopped)
1 cup canned chickpeas (drained and rinsed)
1 cup canned chopped tomatoes
2 tbsp cilantro, roughly chopped
1 tbsp lime juice
½ tsp ground cumin
½ tsp paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
½ cup crumbled feta cheese

Preparation

Cut the peppers in half lengthwise, removing the seeds and core as much as possible while keeping the stalk intact. Place onto a baking sheet, then set aside.

Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat and cook the onion until translucent but not brown.

Add the garlic and stir for a couple of minutes and then add the remaining ingredients except the cheese.

Cook through for 5 minutes until the mixture is hot and completely mixed.

Fill each half pepper with the rice mixture, taking care not to over-fill.

Sprinkle the pepper halves with the crumbled feta cheese.

Bake at 375F for 30 minutes or until golden.

Serve topped with a sprinkle of chopped coriander.
