Portobello Mushrooms stuffed with Red and Green Peppers Quinoa and Aubergine

 

Hi Everyone,  

I haven't posted in a very long time, sorry about that.  

I've been more focussed on my garden and creating music videos.

But today I was inspired to create this recipe.

Here is my latest creation

 

 


 

6 portobello mushrooms (baked in the oven for 25 minutes)

1 cup cooked quinoa (soaked for 1 hour before cooking)

1 small red onion chopped

1 clove garlic chopped

1 jalapeno pepper chopped

half a red bell pepper chopped

half a green pepper chopped

1/4 cup grated carrots

1 cup aubergine sauteed in coconut oil or ghee

1/4 cup roughly ground hazelnuts

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon tamari or shoyu

Sautee the onion and garlic for 5 minutes, add the jalapeno then add the red and green bell peppers. Sautee for 5 minutes, add the grated carrots and ground hazelnuts. Then add in the sauteed aubergine.  Mix well then add the cooked quinoa and then the lemon juice and shoyu. Mix well and then fill the mushrooms with the mixture.  If you like cheese you can add some grated cheese to top it off.  Place in the oven for 15 minutes, then serve with a green salad or another vegetable dish of your choice.

Portobello mushrooms contain lots of nutrients, including phosphorus, potassium, selenium, choline and vitamin D.  They can help prevent cancer, are anti-inflammatory, and they are packed with essential nutrients and are also a good source of B vitamins (not B12 though). So eat lots of mushrooms, so many of them are really good for your health and very delicious too!
