Stuffed Peppers! Oh, how I love this recipe by the Silver-Chic Chef, Elysabeth Alfano.  Elysabeth is also the host of the Awesome Vegans Podcast and Video Series.

There’s nothing to this yummy recipe! So simple and snappy and feeds a bunch of people. Easy and tasty, Stuffed Peppers are a hearty meal that everyone loves. Chop up some veggies with diced tomatos and you are on your way. If you are short on time, substitute Beyond Meat, Lifelight Ground or Gardein Crumbles for the tempeh and spices and move on!

If you do make them with Lightlife Tempeh and sautee in either a teenie bit of oil or mushroom broth, each Stuffed Pepper is only 100 calories!!
