Preparation steps

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Cut off the tops of the bell peppers to create "caps."
Remove the seeds and membranes inside.
Dice the sweet potato into small cubes.
Set aside.
Step 2
Rinse the quinoa under cold water, then cook it in twice its volume of salted water for about 12 minutes until the water is absorbed.
Drain and set aside.

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté the onion and garlic for 2 minutes until translucent.
Step 3
Add the crumbled chipolata sausage and cook for 5 minutes until it starts to brown.
Step 4
Stir in the sweet potato cubes and cook for another 5 minutes, until they begin to soften.
Step 5
Add the broccoli florets, cooked quinoa, paprika, cumin, chili, Herbes de Provence, salt, and pepper.
Mix well and cook for another 3 minutes to blend the flavors.
Step 6
Generously fill each bell pepper with the stuffing, pressing it down lightly.
Place the pepper tops back on for a nice presentation.
Arrange the stuffed peppers in a baking dish.
Pour a small amount of water or broth (about 100ml) into the dish to prevent them from drying out.
Drizzle the peppers with a little olive oil.
Step 7
Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until the peppers are tender and slightly roasted on top.
Five minutes before the end of baking, remove the caps, sprinkle Emmental cheese over each pepper, and set the oven to broil to gratinate.
