Delicious turkey stuffed peppers filled with ground turkey, rice, and spices, topped with melted mozzarella cheese.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large bell peppers
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 cup cooked brown rice
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes, drained
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Place them upright in a baking dish.
  3. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground turkey, onion, and garlic. Cook until the turkey is browned and the onion is translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Stir in the cooked brown rice, diced tomatoes, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
  5. Spoon the turkey mixture into each bell pepper, packing it down gently. Top each stuffed pepper with shredded mozzarella cheese.
  6. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • The stuffed peppers can be prepared ahead of time and baked just before serving.
  • Feel free to customize the filling with your favorite vegetables or spices.
