Turkey stuffed peppers

This is a pretty easy recipe that actually holds pretty well as left overs so you can make a bunch and eat off of them for a couple of days.

I like to make these when I have a red sauce already made and need to use it up or I know some of you may use jarred sauce that works fine as well if you dare :)

Here is what you'll need

3 - medium green peppers (halved long ways and seeds removed)
1/2 yellow onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
Black pepper to taste
1 Tablespoon olive oil

1lb lean ground turkey
1/2 cup wheat bread crumbs
1/4 cup parmigiano cheese
1 egg
1/2 cup cooked brown rice
Black pepper to taste
Pinch of garlic powder
1 tablespoon of olive oil

1 1/2 cup tomato sauce
1/2lb part skim mozzarella cheese

Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees
Heat olive oil in a medium saute pan
Add garlic and onion and cook until soft, then add turkey meat, season with salt and pepper and brown throughly.

Remove turkey from heat and let cool. In a large mixing bowl, add turkey, bread crumbs parmigiano cheese, rice, egg, garlic powder and black pepper.
Combine throughly

Prepare a glass baking dish by drizzling 1 tablespoon of olive oil on the bottom of it

Fill each half of the cut peppers with a heaping amount of turkey mixture and place, spaced sufficiently, in baking dish.
Cover with foil and bake for about 30 minutes

Remove baking dish cover each pepper with equal amount of sauce top with mozzarella and place back into the oven, uncovered for another 10 minutes or until cheese in fully melted.
