Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large bell peppers (any color)
  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes.
  3. In a large skillet, cook the ground turkey over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess fat.
  4. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  5. Stir in the diced tomatoes, parsley, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes.
  6. Spoon the turkey mixture evenly into the prepared bell peppers.
  7. Place the stuffed peppers in a baking dish. You can add a little water to the bottom of the dish to help keep the peppers moist.
  8. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the filling is heated through.
  9. If using, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese during the last 5 minutes of baking.
  10. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious creation!

Notes

  • You can substitute ground chicken or lean ground beef for the turkey.
  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the filling.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like mushrooms or zucchini to the filling.
