stuffed peppers

my new favorite go-to, easy, healthy, fulfilling and delish recipe is stuffed peppers. 

begin by preheating the oven to 375 degrees.

dice and cook a whole onion for about 5 minutes in a large saucepan with a smidge of oil.

 add 3-4 cloves of garlic and continue cooking a few more minutes.

next, i add one pound of ground turkey and cook thoroughly. sprinkle in salt and pepper to taste. 

i completely love the seeds of change indian simmer sauces and it tastes great in this recipe. add a jar of either the madras or the tikka masala (or really any kind of sauce you choose).

**for a little extra, you can add about 1/4 cup of freshly grated parmesan cheese and melt it into the mix**

while the turkey + sauce mixture simmers (about 5 minutes), cut the tops off 4 bell peppers and clean the insides. 

with a spoon, pile the mixture evenly into the peppers. sprinkle the tops with grated parmesan for a wonderfully crunchy top.

place the peppers in an oven-safe baking dish (like this or this) and bake for ~25 minutes...until the peppers have softened and the tops looks crunchy and browned. 

have at 'em!
