Ingredients
  • 1.5 Pounds of Ground Turkey Breast
  • 2.5 Teaspoons of  Old El Paso Taco Seasoning
  • 1 cup of Canned Kidney Beans, rinsed and drained well
  • 1 cup of 0 Point Salsa (I use Ortega Thick & Chunky)
  • 2 Bags of Frozen Riced Cauliflower, Prepared
  • 4 Large Bell Peppers
  • 1 Onion, Diced Small
  • Vegetable Cooking Spray
Instructions
  1. Spray a large frying pan with vegetable cooking spray. Turn on heat to medium high. When hot, brown turkey breast until cooked. Add taco seasoning, beans, diced onion and salsa. Simmer for about 5 minutes so flavor blends. You can add additional seasoning in that you like as well.
  2. Cut peppers in half lengthwise, remove stems and seeds. In a large stockpot, cook peppers in boiling water for about 4 minutes. Drain and rinse them in a colander and run cold water over them.
  3. Spoon meat and bean mixture along with some of the cooked riced cauliflower into each pepper half evenly.
  4. Place in a 13 x 9 baking dish that has been sprayed with vegetable cooking spray. Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until peppers appear to be crispy and tender.
  5. To keep at 0 Points, you can add up to ¼ cup of Kraft Fat Free Cheddar Cheese (per pepper), up to 1½ tablespoons of fat free sour cream (per pepper) and all the 0 Point Salsa you would like.
  6. pepper halves are 1 serving. So to keep it at 0 Points per 2 pepper halves serving, divide cheese to ⅛ cup on each pepper and divide the 1.5 tablespoon serving of fat free sour cream among both peppers. Enjoy!
