Having inherited a farmshare, I 've finally gotten back into the kitchen.  This is what I did today:

2 cups quinoa
2/3 cup lentils
1/4 cup olive oil
6 green bell peppers
1/3 cup honey
6 cups water

spices to taste:
turmeric
cumin
curry powder
bay leaves
hot red pepper
salt

Heat oil in pan, add spices.  Heat til barely smoking.  Add quinoa and lentils, heat til barely smoking again.  Slowly add 4 cups water, maintaining boil.  Cover for 10 minutes, then uncover, add remaining water, and cook uncovered for 15 minutes.

Remove tops and seeds from bell peppers, stuff with quinoa/lentil mix, and lay out in baking pan.  Drizzle tops with about half the honey, then restore tops of peppers.  Bake at 375 for 20 minutes, re-drizzling honey about halfway through.

Next time: Add nuts, maybe raisins or some other dried fruit, reduce amount of honey used.
