Ground Turkey Stuffed Peppers

Lean ground turkey makes a moist, low-fat substitute for the ground beef that's usually found in stuffed pepper filling. To add a nutty flavor and boost the nutrition even further, we call for cooked brown rice, but this recipe will also work with white rice.

Ingreadient

  • 4 large green bell peppers
  • 1 ½ teaspoons neutral oil, such as canola or avocado
