  • 2 zucchini, diced
  • 1 eggplant, diced
  • 4 medium tomatoes, diced
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon dried rosemary

  • Salt, to taste

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup grated vegetarian Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

  • Chopped fresh basil, for serving

Directions:

  • 1.

    Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).

  • 6.

    In a small bowl, combine the flour, Parmesan, and oregano. Add the butter and mix with your fingers until the butter has broken down into small pieces and the mixture is crumbly.

  • 7.

    Fill each pepper with the quinoa and vegetables, then top with the crumble mixture.

  • 8.

    Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the tops are golden brown. Garnish with fresh basil.
