1<\/span> <\/span> can of organic lentils, drained & rinsed<\/span><\/div>\n
4<\/span> <\/span> large capsicums<\/span><\/div>\n
1<\/span> <\/span> courgette, grated<\/span><\/div>\n
1<\/span> <\/span> small onion, finely diced<\/span><\/div>\n
2<\/span> <\/span> cloves of garlic, finely diced<\/span><\/div>\n
¼<\/span> cup<\/span> parsley<\/span><\/div>\n
2<\/span> tsp<\/span> cumin<\/span><\/div>\n

Directions<\/h3>\n
\n
\n
\n

Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Cook the quinoa as per instructions. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Heat a fry pan over medium heat, add 1 tbsp olive oil. Add chopped onion and garlic to the pan and saute for 4-5 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Next add in lentils, courgette and spices and cook for 4-5 minutes until vegetables are cooked through. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Cut the tops off the capsicums, leaving the stems attached (these will be your lids). Remove the seeds and membranes and discard. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Once quinoa is cooked toss it through the lentil mixture with the parsley and stir together until well combined. Season with salt and pepper. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Fill the capsicums with the lentil mixture. Place the \u2018lids\u2019 on top, drizzle with the remaining 2 tbsp olive oil and bake for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through.<\/p>\n
