21 Day Fix Stuffed Peppers

I love recipes that are simple to make, are very versatile, and are PACKED with flavor! This one will definitely exceeds all 3 of those categories. This may just become a favorite in your home!

Serves: 6

WHAT YOU WILL NEED:

• 6 peppers
• 3 yellow containers quinoa 
• 3 yellow containers of black beans
• 6 red containers 93% or 99% lean ground turkey
• 1 can of organic diced tomatoes (I used fire roasted)
• diced onion
• olive oil
• seasonings: chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cumin (I used about 1 tbsp. of each)

WHAT TO DO:

1. Cook the quinoa as directed on the package 
2. Saute the diced onion in olive oil until translucent in a saute pan, then add the ground turkey 
3. Drain and rinse the black beans 
4. Cut off tops of peppers and clean out the insides 
5. Drain the juice from the tomatoes and add to the bottom of your crock pot (I baked mine because my crock pot was already in use... on meal prep days sometimes you have to sacrifice!) 
6. In a large mixing bowl, add all ingredients (turkey, black beans, quinoa, & seasonings)
7. Stuff peppers with mixture (most likely there will be leftovers, I just waited to add them at the end)
8. Cook in the crock pot on HIGH for 3 hours or on LOW for 4-6 hours (or until peppers feel cooked)
