instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a sauté pan on the stove, heat olive oil.
  • Cook onions, garlic, and ground beef in olive oil until browned, about 10 minutes.
  • While turkey is cooking – prepare peppers. Slice halfway and remove seeds and any white inner pieces.
  • When ground turkey is cooked, stir in tomato sauce, spices, black beans, corn and cooked rice.
  • Stuff peppers with filling (about ¾ cup filling per pepper) Try to pack the filling into the peppers using a spoon or your hands. Top with a sprinkle of cheddar cheese.
  • Place stuffed peppers in a greased glass baking dish (I spray mine with olive oil)
  • Bake peppers in the oven for 15-20 minutes until the cheese on top is melted and bubbling on top. The peppers should be able to be pierced easily with a fork.
