Place all bell peppers in large bowl. In a small (ungreased) frying pan over medium heat toast pine nuts, shaking pan occasionally, until nuts become lightly browned. These stuffed peppers taste as bright as they look. Oozing with summer flavor, the sweet roasted bell peppers are stuffed with a lemony quinoa stuffing jazzed up with herbs, cannellini beans, and blanched broccoli rabe.

The pine nut parmesan is a must for a topping. Nutty, zesty, and a bit cheesy to perfectly pair with the fresh filling and juicy peppers. For the sauce, you will need a blender or food processor in order to purée the roasted red peppers. For an additional flavor, I like to top this dish with fresh shredded basil, which I think goes perfectly with the sweet pepper sauce. Carefully peel away blackened skin, then remove stem and seeds while preserving as much of the liquid inside the pepper as you can.
