INGREDIENTS
1 large bell pepper
½ cup cooked quinoa
3 oz lean ground turkey
¼ cup black beans, drained
¼ cup corn
¼ cup diced tomatoes
¼ cup diced onion
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp olive oil
¼ cup low-fat shredded cheese
½ tsp cumin
½ tsp chili powder
Salt & Pepper, to taste
1 tbsp lime juice
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Slice the top off the bell pepper and remove the seeds and membranes.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the diced onion and minced garlic until softened, about 2 minutes.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned and crumbled, about 5-7 minutes. Season with cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
Stir in the cooked quinoa, black beans, corn, and diced tomatoes. Allow the mixture to heat through for about 2 minutes. Squeeze in the lime juice and adjust seasoning if needed.
Spoon the filling into the hollowed bell pepper. Top with low-fat shredded cheese.
Place the stuffed bell pepper in a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pepper is tender and the cheese has melted.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
