🥗Ingredients (Serves 4)

4 large bell peppers (any color—red, yellow, or orange for sweetness)

8 oz feta cheese (block for easy shredding)

1 cup cooked quinoa or rice

1 small zucchini, finely diced

1 garlic clove, minced

¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped

2 tbsp fresh oregano (or 1 tsp dried)

2 tbsp olive oil

Juice of ½ lemon

Salt & freshly cracked black pepper

Optional: cherry tomatoes, olives, or pine nuts for extra flair

🍳Step-by-Step: Feta Stuffed Peppers in 4 Moves

1. Prep the Peppers

Slice the tops off the bell peppers and remove seeds and membranes. Brush lightly with olive oil and place in a baking dish.

2. Shred the Feta

Use the crank cheese grater with the fine shred blade to turn feta into fluffy crumbles in seconds. The uniform texture blends perfectly into the filling.

3. Mix the Filling

In a bowl, combine shredded feta, cooked quinoa, diced zucchini, garlic, parsley, oregano, lemon juice, and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Taste and adjust—feta is salty, so go easy!

4. Stuff & Bake

Spoon the feta mixture into the peppers (pack it generously!). Bake until peppers are tender and the tops are golden. Let cool slightly before serving—the flavors only get better.

🌶️Tips & Twists

Creamier Version – Mix in a little ricotta with the feta before stuffing.

Spicy Kick – Add chopped jalapeño or red pepper flakes to the filling.

Vegan Swap – Use plant-based feta and skip the cheese shred—dice instead.

Make-Ahead – Stuff peppers a day early; bake when ready.

Protein Boost – Stir in cooked ground lamb or chickpeas.
