[Recipe] Stuffed Peppers

Stuffed pepper are one of our favorite go to meals!  They can be made for a dinner or even for a party and are always a huge hit!  We recommend batch cooking these on a Sunday and having a quick, healthy and delicous meal to warm up for dinner for the week.  Happy cooking!

INGREDIENTS:

4 green bell peppers, tops removed and seeded

3 tablespoons coconut oil, divided

1 pound ground turkey or bison

1/2 cup chopped onion

1 small zucchini, chopped

1/2 a yellow bell pepper, chopped

1/2 a red bell pepper, chopped

1 1/2 cups fresh spinach

One 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes

1 tablespoon tomato paste

1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning

Salt and Pepper, to taste

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Wrap the green peppers in aluminum foil and place in a baking dish. Bake for 15 minutes; remove and set aside.

In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the coconut oil and cook the ground turkey or bison over medium heat until it’s evenly brown. Remove to a separate bowl.

Heat the remaining oil in the skillet and cook the onions, zucchini, and red and yellow bell peppers until tender. Add the spinach in the last 2 minutes to wilt.

Return the ground turkey or bison to the skillet. Mix in the tomatoes and the tomato paste and season with the Italian Seasoning. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Stuff the green peppers with the bison mixture. Return the peppers to the oven and cook for another 15 minutes.
