    I stuff my peppers with brown rice, lentils, garlic, onion and cinnamon. Delicious and it is very filling with the rice and lentils!

    I like yellow peppers filled with lean ground beef, brown rice, and a your favorite healthy pasta sauce. I cut them open and sprinkle a little 2% cheese over it. Mmmmm...... I think I've got a craving for them too. They freeze well too so you can make a bunch and take them out one at a time as you want them. :)

    I just made some yesterday, and they were delicious!

    Here is what I did...

    Italian Style Peppers

    4 Red bell peppers sliced lengthwise
    1 1/4 lb Lean ground turkey
    Chopped onion and garlic
    1 Cup Brown Rice
    Sugar Free or Regular Pasta sauce
    Fresh Baby Spinach leaves
    Low-fat Shredded Mozzarella Cheese (Optional)

    I browned the meat with onions and garlic. Then combine browned meat mixture with cooked brown rice, pasta sauce (I eyeballed the amount, just enough to make it juicy), and torn spinach leaves. Mix all together and stuff pepper halves.

    Cover dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes at 350. Then remove foil, add some shredded cheese on top if you want to, and bake for ten additional minutes.

    They turned out great and were really yummy! Since I used four peppers, I had eight halves so we have plenty of leftovers for other meals, I have also read were things like this can be froze for later. I have seen recipes that add zucchini and other veggies, if I had those on hand I would have used that instead of the brown rice.

    I made the Biggest Loser Pepper's last night that I saw on Biggest Loser last week and they were AMAZING!!!!.

    Biggest Loser's website says that they have 140 calories per serving which is a half of a pepper, however when you type it in MyFitnessPal it comes up as 170ish. Not sure who is right or not.

    BEWARE - Do not microwave the leftovers. Peppers beome over cooked and are soggy. Other than that they were wonderful.
