Quinoa-stuffed capsicum with tomato sauce is a dish where textures and flavours meet in harmony. The tender bell peppers hold a filling of cooked quinoa, peas, corn, and carrots, lightly seasoned with cumin and lemon. Served on a bed of rich tomato sauce, this meal balances grainy warmth with bright acidity and freshness.
