These vegan stuffed peppers are a classic Summer dish from the South of France. They can be enjoyed hot or warm. Serve them on their own or with a crunchy salad.
This is a fuss-free and easy recipe that only takes 10 mins to prepare. Perfect for mid-week dinner or weekend lunch.
I made these vegan stuffed peppers with Naturli’ vegan mince. This is a unique plant-based meat alternative made from soya and available from Sainsbury’s.
I am generally not a fan of plant-based mince as most of what is available is often too thin. In comparison, Naturli’s vegan mince has more texture and bulk. Once cooked it has a chunky and hearty consistency very similar to meat. You can read more about it here.
