Good For You Stuffed Peppers

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup  uncooked quick-cooking brown rice
• 1 lb.  ground turkey
• 3 cups  Prego Heart Smart Traditional Italian Sauce
• 6   medium green peppers
• 4 oz.  shredded fat-free mozzarella cheese (about 1 cup)

Directions

 

1- Cook the rice without salt or butter according to the package directions. 

 

2- Cook the beef in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat until it's well browned, stirring often to break up the meat. Pour off any fat. Stir 2 cups of the sauce and the rice in the skillet. 

 

3- Cut each pepper in half lengthwise. Discard the seeds and white membranes. Place the pepper shells in a 17 x 11-inch roasting pan. 

 

4- Spoon the beef mixture into the pepper shells. Pour the remaining sauce over the filled peppers. Cover the dish. 

 

5- Bake at 400 degrees F. for 45 minutes or until the peppers are tender. Top with the cheese. Let stand for 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
