Hands down the best meatless stuffed bell peppers recipe. Pure vegetarian, easy and healthy made with mushrooms and risotto rice instead of ground chicken or meat, cooked Italian style in a San Marzano tomato sauce.
Rinse the peppers and cut the tops and empty the seeds and membrane. Reserve the clean tops also, you’ll need to place them back on top after you fill the peppers.
In a large saute pan heat up the olive oil and saute the onion with a pinch of sea salt until softened and translucent. Add the fennel seeds + a pinch of chili flakes for heat if desired.
Stir in the risotto rice and let cook together for about 5 min. Mix in the mushrooms (or you can use chopped up rehydrated soy curls) and stir with a wooden spoon.
