Ingredients

 

4 Green Bell Peppers (have less sugars than yellow, red, and orange)

1 Package Ground Turkey- 93% Lean or Greater

16 tsp Taco Seasoning: Low Sodium

2 (10 oz) cans Rotel Tomatoes with Green Chilis

4 oz diced Jalapeños

 

Sriracha sauce

 

Serves: ~4

 

Directions

 

1. Wash, dry, and cut bell peppers in half length ways and tear out "tops."

2. Brown the ground turkey over the stove with desired seasoning/tenderizer. 

3. In a large bowl, stir together 16 tsp taco seasoning, diced jalapeños, diced tomatoes, and browned turkey.

4. For immediate eating: lay out peppers curved side down and fill with 1/4 of the mixture from step 3. For baking, see step 7.

5. For future meals (meal prep) divide out the mixture from step 3 equally into 4 baggies and seal.

6. Place 2 pepper halves each in their own baggie (or all of them in a giant baggie if you'll be eating them soon).

7. Bake/Heat in preheated 350 degree oven for 20-30 minutes; take out, flip, bake for another 15-20 minutes. (Watch yours carefully the first time; every oven is different).

8. **I also microwave these at work since I can't use an oven for lunch and they taste great this way, too. (Microwave ~3-4 minutes)

9. Drizzle with Sriracha or other "sauce" of choice.

10. Put not eaten pepper/turkey baggies into fridge for additional future easy ready-to-bake meals!
