Found it! The vegan stuffed pepper recipe you NEED to make tonight

One of the hardest parts about kicking off a plant-based or vegan diet is finding ways to enjoy the meals you're used to without scrimping on taste.

Foodie and blogger Amy Mulvaney is going vegan for a month, and she's been sharing a whole host of simple, budget-friendly and – above all – tasty recipes with us throughout her journey.

Her latest recipe is for these seriously tasty roasted and stuffed red pepper cups. "Whenever I’m stuck for ideas for what to make for dinner, I always make these," says Amy.

"They’re easy to make, they’re filling and delicious, and it looks like you put a lot more effort into making them than you actually did! 

"To keep these vegan, I’m omitting turkey mince and cheese on top, but feel free to add them in."
