Keen on Quinoa

Quinoa Stuffed Peppers

1 pkg flavored quinoa mix or other prepared quinoa
1 Tbsp coconut oil
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
6-8 Bell peppers with tops cut off and seed scooped out.
1/2 C tomatoes, chopped
1/2-3/4 C crumbled feta cheese


Prepare quinoa with water suggested. Add coconut oil, beans, and stir well. I put it all in the rice cooker. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Steam the prepared peppers in a large pot of water. Bring to a boil and boil for 8 minutes. Remove peppers. Take prepared quinoa and add tomatoes and feta. Stuff peppers and bake 30-40 minutes.

P.S. Thanks to my mother-in-law for these yummy peppers!

Peach on Earth

We had our Office Christmas Party the other day and decided on a three ingredient no-fail recipe! It always delivers and rarely leaves leftovers. Peach-BBQ Lil' Smokies 2-14 oz package of Lil' Smokies cocktail sausages 1-16 oz jar of Peach Preserves 1-16 oz bottle of BBQ sauce Put all ingredients into a crockpot, stir and cook on high for 2 hours or low for 4 hours.  Serves 12-15, I would double for larger crowds.
