4 large bell peppers, halved and seeded
1 cup quinoa, cooked
1 can black beans (15 oz), drained and rinsed
1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)

Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Step 2: In a large bowl, combine cooked quinoa, black beans, corn, 1/2 cup salsa, cumin, chili powder, and half of the shredded cheese.
Step 3: Arrange pepper halves cut-side up in the baking dish. Fill each pepper with the quinoa mixture.
Step 4: Pour 1/4 cup water into the bottom of the baking dish. Cover tightly with foil.
Step 5: Bake for 30 minutes until peppers are tender.
Step 6: Remove foil, top peppers with remaining cheese, and bake uncovered for 5 more minutes until cheese melts.
