Let's get grilling

Load Masterbuilt Gravity Series 800 with Kingsford® Original Charcoal and set temp to 400°F.

Cut off the tops of the peppers and remove the membrane from the inside.

In a large bowl combine the quinoa, garbanzo beans, cucumber, oregano, feta cheese, salt, and pepper.

Spoon the mixture into the peppers. Top with extra feta cheese.
