These vegan stuffed sweet peppers with Brussels sprouts and almonds<\/strong> are a bit of a surprise dish: sweet roasted peppers on the outside, a savory Brussels sprouts\u2013nut filling inside, and a creamy basil cashew sauce on top. Unusual? Absolutely. But that\u2019s exactly what makes it so good.<\/p>\n\n\n Stuffed peppers are one of those dishes everyone knows. Usually they\u2019re filled with rice, ground meat, or beans \u2014 comforting and tasty, but rarely surprising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At some point I wondered: Why not Brussels sprouts?<\/em> I honestly don\u2019t remember exactly how the idea came to me. Most likely there were Brussels sprouts sitting in the fridge and I wasn\u2019t in the mood for another tray of roasted vegetables. So I saut\u00e9ed them with almonds, seasoned everything well, and stuffed the mixture into sweet pointed peppers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The result? Incredible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The nutty Brussels sprouts filling with almonds and Italian herbs<\/strong> pairs perfectly with the mild sweetness of the peppers. And the basil cashew cream on top<\/strong> ties everything together: fresh, creamy, and like a little green finishing touch.<\/p>\n\n\n[feast_advanced_jump_to]\n\n\n Drizzle the basil cashew cream<\/strong> over the roasted stuffed peppers or serve it on the side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This dish is naturally gluten-free and low-carb<\/strong>. If you prefer something more substantial, serve the peppers with brown rice, quinoa, or pearl couscous<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I haven\u2019t tested it yet, but I imagine broccoli or cauliflower<\/strong> would work well as alternatives.<\/p> <\/div> Stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator, they will keep for about 4\u20135 days. Keep the basil sauce stored separately.<\/p> <\/div> For both the filling and sauce, you can replace the nuts with sunflower seeds. <\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n I hope you\u2019ll give this vegan stuffed peppers recipe a try.
