Black Bean Stuffed Peppers: Black beans are the best to include in vegetarian meals because they're a great source of protein. Cook onion and garlic in oil. Add corn, beans, diced tomatoes, green onions, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. In a large saute pan heat up the olive oil and saute the onion with a pinch of sea salt until softened and translucent. Mix in the mushrooms ( or ground chicken If using meat) and stir with a wooden spoon.
