During fasting, the problem often arises, but what to cook for dinner. But in fact, there are a lot of lean dishes, you just need to sometimes allow yourself to experiment. Take, for example, stuffed peppers: after all, it is not necessary to cook them with meat. Lean meals are often too bland. But if everything is done correctly, it will turn out so tasty that even at a time when fast food is allowed, you inadvertently think about how to cook this dish again.

    First of all, boil the rice in a separate bowl. While it's being prepared, we'll have plenty of time to do the rest.

    Now let's make the vegetable fry. Lubricate the heated frying pan with oil, throw in the finely chopped onion, and a little later add grated carrots to it. Saute the vegetables until they are browned and softer. We put a little frying in a separate plate and add mushrooms chopped into small pieces into the pan. We simmer everything together on low heat under the lid for about a quarter of an hour. At the end, you need to salt and pepper the minced meat.

    Well, now it's time to do the main component - bell peppers. Carefully cut out the stalk, clean the seeds and rinse the vegetables under running water. Let them dry a little. While the filling is being prepared for them, you can choose a suitable pan, as you need to do this based on the number of peppers that will stand upright during cooking, with the stalks up. Dishes will be required so that they do not fall and occupy all the space. You can put peppers in 2 layers.

    Rice is already cooked by this time. We move it to a sieve and rinse with cold water, so that the cereal does not stick together and cools faster. Then we mix rice with browned mushrooms and vegetables. We stuff our impromptu cups with this mixture. Stuffing should fill them to the very top.

    We put the peppers with the filling in a saucepan. Sprinkle with the fried vegetables set aside earlier. If you are laying out 2 layers, then divide the frying into 2 parts and sprinkle each of them.

    Next, pour about a glass of water, add a little salt, cover the pan with a lid and send it to the stove. We wait for a boil at high heat, and then reduce it and simmer the stuffed peppers for about an hour. Time depends on the variety, just keep an eye on the readiness, and you can't go wrong. The vegetable should become soft and change color slightly.

    That's all! Lean stuffed peppers are ready. Before serving, you can decorate them with fresh herbs and lean mayonnaise.

    Advice: experienced housewives know that not all varieties of bell peppers are suitable for stuffing. Bitter can spoil the dish, interrupting the taste of the filling, while sweet, on the contrary, emphasizes it. Also, the vegetable should have sufficiently thick walls (from 5 to 10 mm). Well, to make your dish more beautiful and original, you can take fruits of different colors - red, yellow and green.

    It's so easy and simple, having spent quite a bit of time, you can diversify the lenten menu and please yourself and your loved ones with delicious fragrant stuffed peppers. Pleasant mushroom taste with spicy vegetable notes will not leave anyone indifferent. Even the food restrictions that are introduced during fasting will not seem too burdensome when you have the opportunity to have such a delicious lunch. Bon appetit!

Usually, many are not averse to enjoying a delicious dessert, but during fasting, the lion's share of sweet recipes falls on gingerbread.

Dip carrots in syrup. The process taking place in the pan may lead to thoughts that candied fruits will not work and carrots can be thrown away. However, when the carrots secrete juice, it warms up and mixes with caramel, such thoughts will disappear from you. Boil carrots in syrup for about 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and leave the carrots in the syrup for a few hours. Then put it back on the fire, boil and leave to infuse. The procedure can be repeated 2-3 times. At the last boil, add the juice of half a lemon. Throw the carrots in a colander to drain the syrup, and then roll in sugar. Put the candied fruits in one layer on parchment and dry in the oven for 30 minutes at a temperature of 80 degrees. Do not take the candied fruits out of the oven until they are completely cool. Transfer the finished candied fruits to a jar and close with a tight lid. In this state, they can be stored for several weeks.

During Lent, believers give up their usual foods, and lean vegetable dishes become the basis of their daily menu. Fasting food should be no frills, but at the same time it must be balanced, able to saturate the body with vitamins and other useful substances. Lenten vegetable dishes do an excellent job with all these tasks, which means that even during Lent you can delight your loved ones with tasty, satisfying and healthy dishes.

Lean stuffed peppers with mushrooms can be prepared for lunch or dinner, or you can also freeze for future use. Frozen stuffed peppers lose a minimum of useful elements, and their taste does not deteriorate at all. Such a dish will help out if you are going to observe any of the fasts. If you stuff the pepper with rice seasoned with vegetables and juicy mushrooms, it will turn out to be very tasty. In addition, this dish turns out to be hearty and nutritious, which is important for those people who strictly observe all the requirements of fasting.

Ingredients for Lean Stuffed Peppers with Mushrooms:

  • sweet bell pepper - 1 kg;
  • onion - 2-3 pcs.;
  • carrots - 1 pc.;
  • champignons - 500 g;
  • round rice - 1 cup;
  • fresh dill - 1 bunch;
  • salt - to taste.

Step-by-step recipe for lean stuffed peppers with mushrooms with a photo:

I start cooking stuffed peppers by preparing vegetable frying for rice. I clean the onion, wash it and cut it into thin half rings. I fry in a frying pan in a well-heated vegetable oil.

I rub large sweet carrots on a coarse grater and send them to the onion. I mix everything and simmer the vegetables under the lid for five minutes.

In the meantime, I wash the rice in a sieve from dust under cold running water. Rice I use polished round. If you prefer the stuffing in peppers to be more crumbly, then long yellow or white rice is best. I send rice to vegetables, mix and fry for about a minute. I pour a glass of water into the filling for stuffed lean peppers, cover with a lid and let the rice absorb water over low heat, i.e. cook until half cooked.

While preparing vegetables and rice, I am preparing mushrooms. Today I will use mushrooms, but the choice of mushrooms is not critical - you can use your favorite mushrooms. I wash the mushrooms thoroughly, cut off the tip of the leg. I cut the mushrooms into slices and fry in a frying pan with a small amount of vegetable oil. After the mushrooms are fried a little, I cover them with a lid so that they start up the juice and stew a little in it. Ready mushrooms, along with the released juice, are sent to rice and vegetables. I also add finely chopped fresh dill. I add a pinch of salt and a little black pepper, after which I mix everything thoroughly. I let the filling cool down a little, brew.

Peppers I will use already peeled and frozen from a local manufacturer. In season, of course, it is better to use fresh fleshy bell peppers. For stuffing, I prefer to choose orange or red peppers, as they are more aromatic than green ones. By the way, in vegetables that have gone through the process of quick freezing, the maximum amount of useful substances is preserved, so even frozen sweet peppers are useful. This is especially important for those who are fasting.

I stuff sweet peppers with cooked rice and vegetable stuffing. I stack them in rows in a suitable size pan. When all the peppers are stuffed and placed in a saucepan, pour it with a glass of cold purified water and cook until tender for 45 minutes. Remember that the cooking time of the dish depends on the size of the pepper. Cook under a tightly closed lid.

Ready peppers can be served with sour cream. Those who fast should confine themselves to fresh herbs. Bon appetit!

Step 1: prepare vegetables.

First of all, let's chop the vegetables. Remove the husk from the onion with a knife, cut off the roots, rinse under cold running water and spread on a cutting board. Cut into small pieces of arbitrary shape to 1 centimeter and place on a clean plate. Next, peel the garlic and chop on a cutting board, the smaller the better. After that, we remove it to the onion slices and move on to the tomato. Rinse the red vegetable thoroughly under running water, dry with paper kitchen towels and place on a cutting board. Using a knife, cut the tomato into a medium cube until 1.5 centimeters and remove to a separate clean plate.

Step 2: Wash the rice.

Pour a glass of rice into a deep plate and fill it with clean water. Then mix with a tablespoon and drain the cloudy water. After that, fill it again with clean water, mix and drain. We repeat this procedure a few more times so that the water eventually remains clean. The last time we drain the water through a colander, as we need to completely get rid of the liquid.

Step 3: Fry the ingredients.

We put the pan on the burner and pour in the vegetable oil. We turn on the temperature of the stove to an average level and wait for the fat to warm up. After that, put chopped garlic with onions in a container and fry until golden brown.

Step 4: boil the rice.

Then put the washed rice into the pan and, with constant stirring with a kitchen spatula, fry until transparent. After that, add chopped tomatoes, broth and 2 cups of clean water, season everything with chili powder and bring the contents to a boil. As soon as the liquid boils, reduce the temperature of the stove and cover the container with a lid. Cook the rice until fully cooked for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally with a kitchen spatula so that it does not burn.

Step 5: Prepare the Bell Peppers.

We wash the bell peppers under running water and carefully cut out the seeds and membranes with a knife, without violating the integrity of the vegetable, so that when baking, the filling does not fall out of the pepper. Then we rinse them again under running water and put them on kitchen towels. Next, turn on the temperature of the stove to a high level, pour clean water into the pan and put it on the burner. Bring the liquid to a boil and lower the washed peppers into the boiling water. We hold them for 4 minutes and use a slotted spoon to get them out of the water. Immediately after that, we wash the vegetables under cold running water and put them in any convenient container.

Step 6: prepare the filling.

After the rice is cooked, turn off the heat and put the contents in a deep plate. Mix rice with vegetables with a tablespoon and add salt to taste. Open the jar of beans and pour into a colander along with the liquid. After that, we shift it to rice and finally mix our stuffing for peppers.

Step 7: form the dish.

Carefully grease the baking dish with vegetable oil and, armed with a teaspoon, we begin to lay the lean filling in the peppers. Stuffed vegetables are tightly packed in a form to each other so that they do not fall during baking.

Step 8: Roast the Lean Peppers.

Preheat the oven to 220 degrees Celsius and remove the form with the dish to bake for 20 minutes. During this time, the peppers will be baked, and the filling will dry out a little. We take out fragrant stuffed vegetables from the oven, helping ourselves with kitchen tacks and you can serve it to the table.

Step 9: Serve Lean Stuffed Peppers.

Lean stuffed peppers are served hot. They can be garnished with lemon slices, avocado, finely chopped greens, and chopped vegetables. As a sauce, you can serve lean mayonnaise or mustard, it depends on your taste, in any case, our hearty second course is ready. Bon appetit!

If you have a garlic clove, you can mince a clove of garlic with it.

You can use both white and red beans in this recipe.

Various other vegetables can also be added to the filling, such as carrots, zucchini, bell peppers, fresh chili peppers, as well as parsley, dill or green onions.

Instead of chili powder, you can use any other aromatic spices of your choice.
