- 50g carrot, grated
- 1 tbsp. toasted pumpkin seeds

Method
- Cook the wild rice as per pack instructions. Drain and set to one side.

- To make the filling, place the cooked wild rice, diced cocktail sausages, courgette, carrot, pumpkin seeds, coriander, smoked paprika and lemon juice into a bowl and mix well. Season to taste.
- Spoon the filling into the blanched peppers and top with a pepper lid.
- Pre-heat the oven to 180C (fan)/ 200C/400F/gas mark 6.
