Stuffed Bell Peppers with Rice & Herbs
These Stuffed Bell Peppers are a beautiful, vegetarian main course that's as nutritious as it is delicious. Large bell peppers are hollowed out and filled with a savory mixture of cooked rice, diced tomatoes, onions, a generous amount of fresh parsley and dill, and toasted pine nuts for crunch. They're then nestled in a baking dish with a simple tomato sauce and baked until the peppers are tender and the filling is heated through. The dish is light yet satisfying, packed with fresh herbal flavors, and visually stunning with its variety of pepper colors. It's an excellent option for a meatless Monday, a potluck, or any time you want a wholesome, oven-baked meal.
