INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 350 F, grease deep baking dish with cooking spray.

4. Stir quinoa into vegetable mixture. Season with salt and pepper. 
5. Wash the bell peppers, cut off the tops and set aside. Scoop out and discard the seeds.
6. Fill bell peppers with quinoa-vegetable mixture. Place peppers in prepared baking dish.
7. Bake in the preheated oven until bell peppers are tender, about 20 minutes. 
8. Remove from the oven, add the rest of quinoa-vegetable mixture to the same baking dish. Sprinkle with roughly chopped cilantro and drizzle with more Turmeric Lemon Dressing. Serve with avocado. Enjoy!
