  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (fan 160°C).
  2. Cut the top of the red bell pepper and remove the seeds and membranes. Place it on a baking tray.
  3. Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a small saucepan, combine quinoa and vegetable stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.
  4. While the quinoa cooks, finely chop the red onion, halve the cherry tomatoes, and mince the garlic clove.
  5. In a frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, and cherry tomatoes. Cook for 5 minutes or until the onion is translucent and the tomatoes are soft.
  6. Combine the cooked quinoa, sautéed vegetables, oregano, salt, and black pepper in a mixing bowl. Mix well.
  7. Stuff the bell pepper with the quinoa mixture, pressing down gently to pack it in. Crumble the feta cheese on top.
  8. Bake the stuffed pepper in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pepper is tender and the cheese is slightly golden.
  9. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
