Stuffed Peppers
Okay- trial and error on this one friends. I was inspired by a few recipes before coming up with my own from items I had on hand that differed slightly. The other trick- place the peppers in the oven BEFORE you fill them to help them soften and shorten your cook time! This is a yummy dinner and would pair great with chips and salsa and a marg! YUM!
Ingredients:
INSTRUCTIONS:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Using a large pan over medium heat, add oil to pan until heated. Add chopped onions. Allow onions to saute for approx. 5 minutes, or until soft and brown. Place Peppers cut-side facing up, in a baking dish sprayed or drizzled with remaining olive oil. Place into oven for 10 minutes and cover with foil. Cook Quick Rice as directions on box entail, set aside when completed. Add garlic and ground turkey to pan with onions and cook through until turkey is browned, using the spatula to break it up into tiny pieces. Once cooked, stir in tomatoes and beans and cook for approximately another 2-3 minutes until soft. Add in rice, and salsa and season the pan mixture with salt, pepper, and oregano. Remove peppers from oven and set aside. Spoon mixture into each pepper, topping with a sprinkle of cheese to taste. Replace foil over peppers and cook until peppers are soft and cheese is melted, approximately 20 minutes.
