Vegetarian Recipe: Simple Stuffed Peppers

For a relatively simple dish, nothing quite beats a stuffed pepper. They act as their own form of portion control, and can be filled with a variety of ingredients to fit the taste you want. Typically they are filled with ground beef, but what if you wanted to go for a meatless option? That's where this recipe comes in!
Any good stuffed pepper should be filled to the brim with ingredients. We also wanted to stick to a Spanish theme for this recipe, so beans and rice were absolutely essential ingredients. In keeping with the vegetarian, healthier aspect of the dish, though, we stuck to brown rice. For some sweetness, we also included chopped tomatoes and corn kernels for a tex-mex feel. To fill out the rest of the dish, we included chopped olives, garlic, and some spaghetti sauce to provide some moisture to what would otherwise be a rather dry dish. Keep reading below for find out how we made this great dish...
