I took that classic apart and put it back together, and what came out are these fabulous vegan stuffed peppers with a <strong>savoury rice and bean filling <\/strong>and a <strong>creamy pumpkin topping<\/strong> \u2013 entirely without (vegan) ground meat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because what really makes the classic work, in my opinion, isn't the ground meat. It's the combination: soft, slow-roasted peppers on the outside, something savoury inside, and something creamy on top that turns golden in the oven. And you don't need cheese for that either. Pumpkin or butternut squash, a spoonful of cashew butter and a splash of soy milk make a cream that's velvety and lightly sweet \u2013 exactly the contrast the savoury filling needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The filling is brown rice and kidney beans, with smoked paprika, oregano and thyme \u2013 plus walnuts for a nutty bite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The lovely thing about this recipe: you get a <strong>complete, balanced meal<\/strong> of complex carbs, protein and healthy fats on your plate, not just a side dish.<\/p>\n\n\n[feast_advanced_jump_to]\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-style-group-heart\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 id=\"why-youll-love-this-recipe\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why You'll Love This Recipe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These vegan stuffed peppers win on three counts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list is-style-default\">\n<li><strong>No substitute products:<\/strong> no vegan ground meat, no vegan cheese \u2013 only whole, real ingredients go in here.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Creamy topping without cheese:<\/strong> the pumpkin cream made from pumpkin, cashew butter and soy milk does that job.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Filling &amp; balanced:<\/strong> kidney beans, brown rice, nuts and vegetables turn these peppers into a healthy, satisfying meal \u2013 not just a side dish.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.veggiejam.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/09\/vegan-stuffed-peppers-with-pumpkin4660.jpg\" alt=\"Autumnal vegan stuffed peppers with a creamy pumpkin topping\" class=\"wp-image-4439\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.veggiejam.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/09\/vegan-stuffed-peppers-with-pumpkin4660.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.veggiejam.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/09\/vegan-stuffed-peppers-with-pumpkin4660-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.veggiejam.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/09\/vegan-stuffed-peppers-with-pumpkin4660-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.veggiejam.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/09\/vegan-stuffed-peppers-with-pumpkin4660-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.veggiejam.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/09\/vegan-stuffed-peppers-with-pumpkin4660-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.veggiejam.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/09\/vegan-stuffed-peppers-with-pumpkin4660-720x1080.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.veggiejam.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/09\/vegan-stuffed-peppers-with-pumpkin4660-360x540.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.veggiejam.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/09\/vegan-stuffed-peppers-with-pumpkin4660-180x270.jpg 180w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"the-ingredients\"    class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For these healthy vegan stuffed peppers you only need a manageable list of ingredients:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pumpkin cream<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list is-style-feast-list\">\n<li><strong>Hokkaido pumpkin:<\/strong> 350 g or 2.5 cups cubed.
