Are you looking to change up your dinner menu?? Lately, at my house we’ve been eating a lot of tomato based meals such as ground turkey with some type of veggies coated in a red sauce.
This style of cooking gets to be very old very fast. To be honest with you covering everything in a tomato sauce doesn’t make it taste better, doesn’t add extra flavor, and doesn’t keep things fresh or light.
In my family, we have some picky eaters. My dad always wants to “add flavor” which means putting dinner in a red sauce. I wanted to think of a meal that could please the masses. Something tasty and flavorful without the heaviness of a sauce.
I decided to put a spin on stuffed peppers! A lot of recipes called for a sauce or heavy on the cheese (to help bind everything together) which is exactly what I wanted to stay away from. Instead, I chopped up fresh veggies, ground turkey, black beans, spaghetti squash and combined them together. The spices put on the meat were to resemble tacos!
The stuffed peppers were a hit. We’re they a little messy to eat? Yes, but what good meal isn’t :) If you are looking to change up your weekly menu, I’ve included the recipe below!!
