My home smelled like Mexico when I was preparing these poblano stuffed peppers, chiles rellenos with quinoa salad. I love how the poblano peppers smell while they are roasting, and what I also love about this is how easy they are to prepare.

These stuffed poblano peppers are super easy to prepare
If you are like me, probably the word “stuffing” is kind of scary. Anything stuffed gives me the chills and I fear I will be spending hours and hours in the kitchen preparing it. But not with this recipe, I’m telling you….





To prepare the chile poblano peppers (here is some info about them) you just have to roast them first, cut them by half ( FROM ONLY ONE SIDE) then, open them really careful. And then again, really carefully remove the seeds and veins. Leave the veins if you like spicy food, ??. When ready just spoon the salad and top with diced avocado, pumpkin seeds, and cilantro.

Here is the recipe, please let me know if you like it and if you would like to see more recipes like this.
