Instructions

Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees F. lightly grease a baking dish (I actually used 2 medium dishes)

While the oven pre-heats, cook your rice according to instructions.

Once the rice is done, stir in the black beans and corn. Salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

Cut your peppers in half. I cut them in half by cutting down the middle of the pepper (horizontally) HOWEVER, its a bit easier to get all of the seeds out if you cut the peppers down the top (through the stem). Once cut, fully remove and discard all of the seeds and white bits.

Stuff each pepper evenly with the rice mixture so that it is overflowing. Place in your baking dish(es).

If using, top with a bit of cheese and then bake in the oven for 10 minutes. We're only baking these long enough to melt the cheese and to heat the peppers all the way through.

Let cool slightly, top with your cilantro, sour cream, and salsa and ENJOY!!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Prep Peppers for Even Cooking 🫑
Choose bell peppers of similar size and slice a thin layer off the bottom to create a flat base so they stand upright and cook evenly in the oven.
Toast Your Beans for Depth 🫘
Drain and lightly pan-toast your black beans for 2-3 minutes before mixing with other ingredients to enhance their nutty flavor and reduce excess moisture in the filling.
Layer Your Filling Strategically 🏗️
Place rice mixture as the base, then beans, corn, and salsa in the middle, finishing with vegan cheese on top so it melts perfectly over the warm filling.
Maximize Flavor with Cilantro Timing 🌿
Reserve half your cilantro to stir into the filling before baking and use the other half as a fresh garnish after cooking to maintain vibrant color and brightness.
Tent with Foil to Prevent Charring ✨
Cover stuffed peppers with foil for the first 20 minutes of baking, then uncover to allow cheese to brown and peppers to caramelize slightly without burning.
