INGREDIENTS
6 oz Lean Ground Beef
1/3 cup Canned Black Beans (no salt added)
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Reduced Fat Cheddar Cheese (shredded)
1/4 cup Fresh Diced Tomato
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Ground Cumin
1/2 tsp Chili Powder
1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the top off the red bell pepper and remove the seeds and membranes. Set the pepper aside.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the lean ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks.
Stir in the ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat the beef evenly.
Add the drained black beans and diced tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through and well combined.
Spoon the beef and black bean mixture into the hollowed bell pepper, packing it firmly.
Place the stuffed pepper in a baking dish and cover with foil. Bake for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil, sprinkle the shredded reduced fat cheddar cheese on top of the stuffed pepper, and bake uncovered for an additional 5-7 minutes until the cheese melts.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
