Ingredients
- 4 medium bell peppers (any color you like)
- 1 pound ground turkey or beef
- 1 cup cooked rice (white or brown)
- 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)
- 1 cup salsa (go with your favorite store-bought or homemade)
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 cup shredded cheese (like cheddar or Monterey Jack)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- First things first, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grab those bell peppers, slice the tops off, and remove the seeds. Set them aside.
- In a large skillet, cook the ground turkey or beef over medium heat until it’s fully browned. Drain any excess grease if needed.
- Stir in the cooked rice, black beans, corn, salsa, chili powder, and cumin. Season it with salt and pepper to taste. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes.
- Now it’s time to stuff those peppers! Fill each pepper generously with the meat and rice mixture, packing it in there like you mean it.
- Place the stuffed peppers upright in a baking dish. Pour a little extra salsa on top and sprinkle the shredded cheese over the peppers.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Once done, take them out and let them cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh cilantro if you’re feeling fancy.
