Serving Size = 4

Cut the tops off of the peppers, add some salt to each pepper and bake for 35 minutes. Take out of the oven and pour out any excess water.
Combine chicken stock and quinoa in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, turn down to a simmer and cook until the quinoa absorbs all of the liquid.
Saute the mushrooms, garlic and onions in a few tablespoons of butter with a touch of oil (do not over crowd). Once browned, add the tomatoes (throw away the juice), spices, s/p and cook a few more minutes. Add the corn kernels and quinoa, cilantro and turn off the heat. Add 1/2 of the lime juice, stir. Stuff the mixture into the peppers and place back in the glass dish. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven, and squeeze the other 1/2 of the lime over the top of each pepper.

Original recipe
Serving Size = 3 - 4
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper
- Salt
- 1 tablespoon of oil
- 1 can drained chickpeas, patted dry
Preheat oven to 400F
Add chickpeas, oil, spices and salt to a bowl. Mix well and place onto a baking sheet or pan. Spread them out evenly so they are not on top of each other. Bake for 35-45 minutes until lightly brown and crunchy. Let cool to room temperature before serving.
The Steak
I cook our steaks the same way every time. I do not want to over season the steak. I add salt, lots of pepper and a small sprinkle of onion powder on each side. They are then cooked on a grill until medium to medium-well.

Hi Elsa,
Both dishes sounds healthy and delicious. I never used quinoa in my cooking, should try this one day. I love this chickpeas, using only 1 tablespoon of oil, that's great. Thanks for visiting my site and leaving your sweet comment, keep in touch ya...

Everything sounds delicious and so nutritious too. I love using chickpeas in hummus and salads but I've never tried roasting them. They sound great!
I love quinoa, it's very mild so you can mix it with anything. Just make sure you rinse it thoroughly before cooking.
And roasted chickpeas are yummy. They take on a nutty flavor. Great snack food!
These recipes look and sound really good, and healthy, too--thanks for sharing!
This looks delicious! I have never had quinoa before and it isn't available where I live but this looks like a really good fall dinner.
You might be able to find it at a health food store. Unfortunately, if you live in a small town and try to buy quinoa, it can be double the price. I have to drive far, far away to stock up on groceries so I buy quinoa while I'm out. The price difference is $3.00 a bag compared to $6.00 a bag (normal price, not a sale price).
I love stuffed peppers! Yum! And quinoa and chick peas. This would be a hit at my house. I may just make them this week!
The stuffed peppers taste great! The cumin and lime really come through in this dish. I am sure you will love it! :)
