4 large jalapeño peppers

0.25 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt

0.25 tsp smoked paprika

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

• 2

  Slice the jalapeño peppers in half lengthwise and use a small spoon to carefully scrape out the seeds and membranes.

• 3

  In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and ground turkey, breaking the meat into small crumbles with a spatula.

• 4

  Season the turkey with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper, cooking until completely browned.

• 5

  Transfer the cooked turkey to a mixing bowl and let it cool for a few minutes before stirring in the Greek yogurt and shredded cheddar cheese.

• 6

  Fill each jalapeño cavity generously with the turkey and cheese mixture, pressing down slightly to pack it in.

• 7

  Sprinkle the almond flour evenly over the top of the stuffed peppers to create a light breading.

• 8

  Arrange the peppers on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the peppers are tender and the topping is golden brown.
