brown rice, ground round/lentils, diced tomato/onion/mushroom/yam/summer squash. fry up all the veggies/protein, make the rice, mix rice with fry-up, stuff the stuffing into peppers. top with vegan cheese if desired, brush oil onto outside of stuffed peppers, bake

A stuffing of zucchini, rice, onion, maybe some shrooms is always nice. Essentially a vegan gemista.

Edit. I've never precooked the peppers before stuffing, they still get nice and soft, especially if covered with foil. The recipe above seems overcomplicated, here is one that is more like what I have done. CW for second link, milk products, that can be left out just fine.

i bet bulgur would go crazy in the stuffed pepper

I cook almost entirely on vibes and couldn't find a recipe to link thats close enough to how I do stuffed peppers but basically

  • cook rice in stock with tumeric, safflower, or saffron for color.
  • preheat oven to 375°F

In a separate pan

  • slowly cook down finely diced garlic, onions, shallots, and carrots in olive oil until everything is soft and fragrant
  • cook down diced tomatoes until mostly mush
  • add in whatever protein, cut up into fairly small pieces. Usually mushrooms and chickpeas but you can use whatever. Tvp or tofu also works well.
  • add in spices, this is entirely on vibes and I am incapable of describing which spices and how much
  • cook until protein is almost done
  • mix in cooked rice
  • mix in diced tomatoes

Once done making stuffing

  • stuff mixture into hollowed out peppers, I like to do them upright but cut in half length wise is easier
  • top with fried onions or whatever else you have
  • bake on tray in oven until tender, about 15-20 minutes

I'll swap out or add basically everything except for the peppers and the rice.

beans, veggies, cashew cream?

I feel like these could be altered to match whatever level of difficulty/effort you want to commit to preparing the stuffing as long as you have beans, garlic, onions, cumin, maybe another pepper or just cayenne, and cilantro but I haven't actually made it myself.
