Stuffed Peppers

Stuffed green bell peppers from Mom's recipe..a great Sunday meal!Note: You can use ground beef instead of ground turkey, but the nutritional facts will be different--the facts posted are for turkey. I find they taste just as good with the turkey. Stuffed green bell peppers from Mom's recipe..a great Sunday meal!

6 large green peppers
1 lb ground turkey
2 tbsp chopped onion
1 cup cooked rice
1 tsp salt
1/8 tsp garlic salt
1 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
Directions
*Preheat oven to 350 F
*Cut thin slice from stem of each pepper; remove guts and rinse
*Cook peppers 5 minutes in enough boiling water to cover, drain
*Cook and stir onion and turkey in skillet until turkey is light brown; drain
*Stir in rice, salt, garlic salt, and 1 cup tomato sauce; heat though
*Stuff each pepper with turkey mixture; stand upright in greased 8x8x12 baking dish

*Note: I couldn't find nutritional info for a whole pepper, so I didn't include that in the recipe. But I can't imagine a green pepper would add much more!

This was pretty good, but the pepper came out mushy and completely fell apart the first time. The next time, I skipped the boiling step and it came out just right. The "stuffing" is pretty good but a little lacking in flavor, so you may want to play with the spices a bit to get it just right. - 11/6/08

I enjoyed this version with the turkey. I substituted the white rice and used brown. Once the meat was browned, I mixed the rest of the ingrediants and didn't reheat them. I didn't boil the peppers much and they weren't that mushy but next time I will delete the boiling part. Overall, very tasty. - 11/17/08

typo alert: ingredients say ground turkey, instructions say beef. I might try a vegetarian version with meat substitute. - 11/2/08

Oops. I just copy and pasted the instructions out of the old recipe that I had typed up. I used to make it with beef, then switched to turkey. Corrected now, thanks for pointing that out!

This is the first time I cooked with ground turkey. I added 1 carrot diced, 1/4c onion & tbs garlic. I also used stewed mexican style tomatoes & diced them. I did boil the peppers for about 3 min. & baked for 25 min. Removed foil, added italian style diced tomatoes & baked uncovered for 15 min. YUM! - 8/29/09

I don't eat the peppers either, but it just doesn't tast the same without the pepper flavoring! :-)

The recipe sounds really nice, but I found it hard to get my head around the switching back and forth between turkey and beef. Which is the Nutritional Info for? :-) - 8/8/09
Reply from EVERLASTINGGOO (8/17/09)
Info is for the ground turkey, sorry, I seem to have messed a lot of people up with that!

I used fresh tomatoes from garden inside the pepper cups and then as a stewed tomato sauce on top and as the juice for them to cook in. We love them! If you love cabbage, you can use the same stuffing, but stuff slightly pre-cooked cabbage leaves. wrap tightly and shut with a toothpick. Also YUM - 9/23/12
