Name: Stuffed Peppers with Quinoa
Ingredients: 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained; 1 cup water; 1/2 cup quinoa, rinsed; 4 large green peppers; 3/4 pound lean ground beef (90% lean); 1 large onion, finely chopped; 3 teaspoons dried parsley flakes; 2 teaspoons paprika; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes; 1/4 teaspoon pepper; 3 garlic cloves, minced; 2 cans (8 ounces each) no-salt-added tomato sauce, divided; 3/4 cup frozen corn, thawed; 1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese

"Quinoa adds crunch, corn lends sweetness and color, and red pepper flakes ratchet up the heat in these tender stuffed peppers. Whole wheat rolls or breadsticks and a pitcher of iced tea make for a standout supper. —Joyce Moynihan, Lakeville, Minnesota..."
