Turkey & Black Bean Taco Stuffed Bell Peppers

Hot diggity!  I am really enjoying trying new and healthy recipes.  I found this one on Pinterest, but I will be using it again and again with variations through out the summer.

Now for what I did.

Preheat your oven for 375 degrees.

I cooked up my ground turkey with some garlic.  Once browned I added my reduced sodium taco seasoning. ( I am going to try to make my own taco seasoning this summer)  Then 1 can of drained black beans.


I washed my peppers, cut the tops off and scraped the seeds out of them.  I then filled the peppers with my taco mixture.  I used my Pampered Chef Muffin Tin for baking as this allowed my peppers to stand up nicely.  I sprinkled with some shredded cheese and baked for 20 minutes.



The recipe took less than 30 mintues in total and 2 stuffed peppers is under 500 calories :)

Short, Sweet, Simple and to the point!  Enjoy the great spring weather we are finally having.  We will see what I cook up next week :)
