Fall Stuffed Peppers
Ingredients
- 6 Medium Bell Peppers, halved and seeded
- 1/2 White Onion, diced
- 2 Tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 Lb. Ground Turkey, 90% lean or more
- 1 Large Sweet Potato, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1 1/2 C. Wild Rice, cooked
- 1/2 C. Dried Cranberries, unsweetened
- 1 tsp. Dried Rosemary
- 1 tsp. Dried Thyme
- 2 C. Reduced Sodium Chicken Broth
- 7 Oz. Crystal Farms Reduced-Fat Low Moisture Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
- Salt & Pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F.
- Spread the diced sweet potato on a sheet pan. Toss with 1 Tbsp. of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until cooked through. Once the sweet potatoes are cooked, remove the tray from the oven and change the oven temperature to 350F.
- Meanwhile, arrange the halved bell peppers in two 9x13 baking dishes, cut side up. Set aside.
- Heat the remaining olive oil in a pan over medium heat. When hot, add the onion and cook for about 2 minutes until softened. Add the turkey and cook about 6 minutes, until it reaches a temperature of 165F. Season with salt and pepper and make sure to break the turkey up as it cooks.
- In a large bowl, combine the turkey mixture, sweet potatoes, rice, dried cranberries, rosemary, and thyme. Mix to combine.
- Pour 1 cup of chicken broth into the bottom of each baking dish.
- Evenly fill the bell peppers with your filling and sprinkle the top with cheese.
- Cover the pan with foil and bake for about 40 minutes, until the peppers have softened. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
