2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, plus a little extra to drizzle
1 medium onion, finely diced
2 tbsp tomato paste
3 cloves garlic, minced

1 ½ tsp dried oregano
Sea salt and cracked black pepper
6 capsicums (3 red and 3 green), with cores and tops removed
1 cup shredded cheese
Fresh parsley, chopped, to garnish
Method
Preheat oven 200°C (180°C Fan-forced)
Add extra virgin olive oil to a saucepan over a medium heat and add diced onions. Cook onions for approximately 5 minutes, until soft. Then stir in tomato paste and garlic and cook until fragrant for approximately one more minute.
Add Quorn Mince and diced tomatoes to pan and cook according to Quorn package
directions for 10 minutes. After 5 minutes of cooking time, stir in cooked rice and season with oregano, salt and pepper and let simmer until liquid has reduced slightly.
Place capsicums on a baking tray and drizzle with olive oil. Spoon Quorn Mince mixture into each capsicum and top with shredded cheese and cover baking tray with alfoil.
Bake for approximately 35 minutes, or until capsicums are tender. Uncover foil and cook for a further 10 minutes until cheese bubbles.
