Stuffed peppers are one of the easiest things to cook vegan. Red peppers are the most nutritious- they have more vitamin c, beta carotene and phytonutrients than other peppers because they are the most mature, giving them time to develop all their nutrients. They are also the sweetest, which makes them my favorite, and they pair well with onions, garlic, and basil which are also nutritional powerhouses.
