INGREDIENTS
1 large bell pepper
1/2 cup cooked white quinoa
1/4 cup cooked black beans
1/4 cup cooked sweet corn kernels
1/4 cup diced tomatoes
1 ounce lean ground turkey
1 tsp olive oil
1 tsp lemon zest
Spices: cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Cut the top off the bell pepper and remove the seeds and membranes. Set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the lean ground turkey and cook until lightly browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Season with a pinch of cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, and the cooked turkey. Stir in the lemon zest and adjust seasoning if needed.
Stuff the bell pepper with the quinoa-turkey mixture, packing it in firmly.
Place the stuffed bell pepper in a baking dish. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bell pepper is tender and the flavors meld.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
