INGREDIENTS
1 large bell pepper
1/2 cup cooked quinoa
1/2 cup canned black beans (rinsed)
3 oz lean ground turkey
2 tbsp fire-roasted diced tomatoes
2 tbsp reduced fat shredded cheese
2 tbsp plain nonfat Greek yogurt
1 tsp olive oil
1 tsp ground cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cut the top off the bell pepper and remove the seeds and membranes, setting the pepper aside.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the lean ground turkey and cook until lightly browned, breaking it apart with a spoon.
Stir in ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Add the fire-roasted diced tomatoes and let it simmer for a couple of minutes.
Mix in the cooked quinoa and black beans to combine evenly with the turkey mixture.
Fill the bell pepper with the mixture, packing it well.
Place the stuffed pepper in a baking dish and cover with foil. Bake for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil, sprinkle the shredded cheese on top, and continue baking for an additional 5-7 minutes until the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
Once baked, top with a dollop of Greek yogurt, and serve warm.
