Stuffed Peppers

I actually got this recipe from the man himself, Shaun T.!  I tweaked it a little bit, but still I give props to him for this one!!

Makes about 6 servings.

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb. lean ground turkey
  • Frank's Red Hot sauce
  • 1/4 minced onion
  • Lemon pepper seasoning to taste
  • 3 large red, orange, green, or yellow bell peppers, washed
  • 1 cup fat free chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup tomato sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups cooked brown rice or quinoa
  • Olive oil spray
  • 1 Avocado (optional for topping)
  • Diced sauteed peppers and mushrooms (optional for stuffing)

Directions:
Heat oven to 400 degrees.  Cook rice/quinoa and set aside.  Heat olive oil on medium heat in pan.  Add onion and Frank's Red Hot sauce and saute for approx. 2 minutes then add ground turkey.  Season with lemon pepper and other desired seasonings and cook completely through.  Add 1/4 cup tomato sauce and 1/2 cup chicken broth, mix well and simmer on low for 5 minutes.  Combine cooked rice/quinoa and meat together.  (You can add diced peppers and mushrooms to the rice/quinoa mix as well!  I sauteed them first!)

Cut peppers in half lengthwise and remove all seeds and place them in baking dish.  Spoon mixture into each pepper.  Pour remainder of chicken broth into the bottom of the pan with the peppers.  Cover tight with aluminum foil and bake for about 35 minutes.  Top with avocado.
