INGREDIENTS
150g Ground Turkey
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa (approx. 92g)
1 medium Bell Pepper
1/4 medium Onion (approx. 40g)
1 Garlic clove
1/4 cup Diced Tomatoes
1/2 tsp Olive Oil
Seasonings (Salt, Pepper, Dried Oregano) to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cut the top off the bell pepper and remove seeds and membranes. Set the pepper aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil and sauté the diced onion until it softens, about 2-3 minutes. Add minced garlic and sauté for another 1 minute.
Add the ground turkey to the skillet. Cook until it’s browned, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks.
Stir in the cooked quinoa, diced tomatoes, salt, pepper, and dried oregano. Allow the mixture to heat through for another 2 minutes.
Fill the hollowed bell pepper with the turkey and quinoa mixture.
Place the stuffed pepper in a baking dish and cover with foil. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the pepper is tender.
Remove the foil during the last 5 minutes for a lightly roasted top if desired. Serve warm.
