Southwestern Turkey Stuffed Peppers

 

So easy, so yummy, reheats easily and freezes well!

 

Ingredients:

1 lb lean ground turkey

 

4-5 Bell peppers cleaned, with the top cut off

 

1 Can low sodium black beans, drained & rinsed

 

1/4 diced red onion

 

1 cup diced cherry tomatoes

 

Cayenne Pepper

 

Dried cilantro

 

Olive oil (1 tablespoon)

 

Salt (a pinch of it)

 

Garlic ( maybe a half tablespoon)

 

Cook turkey on medium until all pink is gone, add in all ingredients, and let simmer so flavor sets in well! Make sure that oven has been preheated to 375. Once all your ingredients have simmered together for about 5-10 minutes, stuff your peppers, place in the oven for about 35-40 minutes and voila! Dinner is served! You can top with a bit of cheese if want but make it a nice light cheese!

 

I am all about convenience foods so this is a staple for me at least once a month when I do my own meal prep at home because it is simple. It also reheats well! And freezes well!!!

 

Enjoy!
