Stuffed Peppers

For my stuffed pepper recipe, I want to say that my husband absolutely devoured these!  He said that if he had to have a last meal, he would choose this to be his last meal!  Again, the way I did this is just a guide to help you along.  I added corn as a side but you can add any side you would like. 

Ingredients: 
4 Bell peppers
1 pound of ground turkey
1 cup of brown rice
4 tomatoes
1/2 cup of diced onion
Cheddar cheese
2 cloves of garlic
Any seasoning you'd like (I used the 21 Day Fix All-Purpose Seasoning mix

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.  Start cooking your rice.  Usually for a cup of cooked rice, you need about a half cup raw. 
2. Put your ground turkey in a large skillet and brown.  Add your fresh garlic, onion, and 2 chopped tomatoes.  You can also add any other types of veggies you want.  You can add more pepper, hot peppers, spinach, etc.  
3. Cut your bell peppers in half long ways and remove the insides.  Place them in a baking pan and prepare to stuff them.  Mix up your filling mixture and once the rice has become tender, mix it in with your meat.  
4. Stuff your peppers and cover with aluminium foil.  Cook for approx. 30 minutes.  After the turkey has cooked, turn your oven to BROIL.  Dice the other 2 tomatoes you have and make them into a salsa type of mixture.  Spoon them on top of your peppers then add cheese.  Broil long enough for the cheese to get a little crisp!  It will usually take about 10 minutes for this to happen.  Serve and enjoy!
