MINI BELL PEPPER RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F and line a large baking try with parchment or aluminum foil. Lightly spray with oil.
• Spray oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat.
• Add onion, garlic and cilantro and saute about 2 minutes, add ground turkey, salt, garlic powder, cumin and cook meat for 4 to 5 minutes until meat is completely cooked through. Add 1/4 cup of tomato sauce and chicken broth, mix well and simmer on medium for about 5 minutes, remove from heat.
• Meanwhile, arrange mini peppers in a single layer, cut-side up close together.
• Fill each with cooked ground turkey mixture, then top with shredded cheese and jalapeno slices, if using.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes, until cheese is melted.
• Remove from oven and top with black olives, sour cream and cilantro. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Cut the bell peppers through the stem into sixths, remove the stem and seeds. Transfer to a large microwave safe bowl, add a splash of water and a pinch of salt. Cover and microwave until the pepper pieces are pliable, about 4 minutes. Let cool slightly and then arrange close together on a foil-lined baking sheet, cut sides-up.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chili powder and cumin and cook, stirring, until fragrant and toasted, about 30 seconds. Add the ground beef and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring and breaking up into bite-size pieces, until browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler. Spoon some beef mixture onto each pepper piece. Sprinkle with cheese and broil until the cheese melts, about 1 minute. Top with dollops of guacamole and pico de gallo. Thin the sour cream out with a little water and drizzle over the nachos.
