Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large bell peppers
  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure a perfectly baked pepper.
  2. Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds, creating delightful cups that will hold the turkey filling.
  3. In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until they’re soft and fragrant.
  4. Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until it is browned and no longer pink.
  5. Stir in the cooked rice, diced tomatoes, black beans, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well and let the filling simmer for a few minutes.
  6. Fill each bell pepper generously with the turkey mixture, ensuring you pack it in for maximum flavor.
  7. If desired, sprinkle shredded cheese on top of the stuffed peppers.
  8. Cover the baking dish with foil and pop it into the preheated oven. Bake for 30 minutes.
  9. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, letting the cheese bubble.
  10. Once they’re ready, serve these delightful stuffed peppers warm.
