Mexican style stuffed peppers

I used:

1 pound ground turkey breast
3 bell peppers
2 cups of chopped fresh cilantro
1 cup instant brown rice
1 cup chicken broth
1 small white onion diced
1/2 low fat colby jack/cheddar cheese
2 cups black beans
2 cups corn
1/2 red bell pepper diced
2 tablespoons cumin
2 tablespoons adobo seasoning
1 tablespoon of olive oil




Directions:

In sauce bring chicken broth to a boil and add brown rice, turn off heat and cover for 15 minutes.

In a large non stick skillet add one table spoon of olive oil on medium heat.

Add diced onion and ground beef

Let ground turkey brown and season with cumin, adobo, diced pepper, black beans, brown rice, and corn.

Cut peppers in half and clean

In quart pot bring water to a boil and place cleaned halved peppers in and boil for 10 minutes. Drain for 5 minutes.

Fill pepper with mixture and pack in tightly, sprinkle remainder of cheese on top to melt. Cheese will melt from heat of meat mixture.
