Remember that Halloween idea I mentioned in yesterday's post?! In the spirit of Halloween, my favorite holiday, I carved some orange bell peppers to look like pumpkins!
This is such a fun idea and a great way to get kids excited about eating healthy food! You could really stuff them with anything (sloppy joe meat, spaghetti, sausage stuffing, etc...) but I did an improv version of yesterday's post with corn, black beans and chicken.
I saw this carved bell pepper idea last year on spa bettie and had to share the idea with you guys. She did it with a carrot ginger quinoa dish.

Step 1: cut the top off like you would a pumpkin
Step 2: scrape out the seeds and membrane
Step 3: carve your face *carefully* with a kinfe. even better if you have mini serrated pumpkin carving knives
Step 4: stuff with desired filling
You can bake these peppers depending on the filling but they won't hold their shape quite as well. I liked the crunch of the fresh veggie in contrast to the softer quinoa filling. If I were going to make them again, I'd use red or black quinoa to get more of a halloween feel. White was what I had on hand so I just went with it!
Happy Halloween!
