Time 1h40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

¾ cup uncooked brown rice
1 ½ cups water
1 pound ground turkey
3 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
1 large egg
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon dried basil
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon dried parsley
4 medium green bell peppers

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Rinse rice and place in a saucepan. Add water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is partially cooked, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir turkey in the hot skillet until partially cooked and crumbly, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
  • Add cooked rice, tomato sauce, egg, Worcestershire sauce, red pepper flakes, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, basil, oregano, and parsley; mix thoroughly.
  • Remove the tops of the peppers and scoop out the insides. Arrange peppers, hollowed-sides up, in a deep baking dish. Slice the bottoms of the peppers if necessary to help them stand upright. Spoon turkey mixture into each pepper and place any extra in the dish around the peppers. Cover with foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until turkey and rice are cooked through and filling is hot, about 50 minutes.

These stuffed peppers are a great make-ahead meal. I made them ahead of time and then just reheated them when I was ready to serve.

I wasn't sure how I would feel about the spicy sauce, but it was actually really good. It added a nice kick to the peppers.

I made these stuffed peppers for my vegetarian friends and they loved them! I used a meatless ground beef substitute and the peppers were still delicious.
