instructions

01

Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry all produce. Halve poblanos through stem, then remove seeds and ribs.

02

Bring vegetable stock and a large pinch of salt to a boil in a small, lidded pot. Once boiling, add quinoa, cover, and reduce heat to low. Simmer until quinoa is tender and water has evaporated, 15-20 minutes.

03

Drain corn and pat dry with paper towels. Heat a drizzle of oil (about 1 tsp) in a large, oven-safe pan over high heat. Add corn and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly charred, 4-5 minutes.

04

Stir cooked quinoa into pan with veggies; season with salt and pepper. Once poblanos are done roasting, stuff each with as much of the grain mixture as will fit. 

05

Transfer pan with stuffed peppers to middle rack of oven. Broil until cheese is melted and lightly browned, 2-3 minutes.
