• 1/2 tsp basil/oregano seasoning (or any blend of
italian herbs)
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder (or 1 garlic clove, pressed)
• 1/4 tsp salt/pepper

• 1 tbs grated parmesan cheese + 4 tbs to garnish
over the top of each pepper
• Optional: 1 tsp (or 1 packet) low calorie sweetener
1. Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees. Line baking sheet
with foil, (for easy clean up), coat with non-stick cooking
spray. Wash red peppers, and cut around the
stem to remove. Cut peppers in half length-wise, and
remove the seeds and ribs inside the peppers. Set
peppers on baking pan.
2. Meanwhile, cook ground turkey in a large nonstick
pan over medium-high heat. Stir and break up
the turkey while it’s cooking. When turkey is cooked
through, add the sauce and seasonings to the pan.
Add the spinach and Parmesan and stir until everything
is well combined.
3. Scoop 1/4 of the turkey mixture into each pepper.
Sprinkle 1 tbs Parmesan over each pepper.
4. Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until cheese is melted,
and lightly golden brown.
