Pesto & Quinoa Stuffed Peppers

Tried this recipe and it was a success!

 

I actually did the feta & quinoa variation as there are two versions in the book* on page 146.  It looked almost as good as the illustration (p.147) but unfortunately I didn't think to take a photo.  I'll add one next time I make the meal.

 
Fairtrade ingredients I used were:

 
  • Alice & Oscar's Quinola - red variety (You can buy the white variety at Traidcraft but I got the red in my local F/T shop^ in York.)


  • Zaytoun Palestinian Black Olives (again from my local F/T shop^).


  • Essential Black Peppercorns (again from my local F/T shop^).

 
The pesto version is possibly lower in calories so I'll have to try that one next!
