Stuffed peppers are simply delicious, especially when locally grown peppers are available in Heinen’s Produce Department, but prepping the filling and assembling each individual pepper can be too time consuming for a busy weeknight.
This recipe delivers the same flavors of classic stuffed peppers in one time-saving bake. Featuring less than 10 hearty ingredients including Heinen’s pre-cooked brown rice, ground turkey, diced local bell peppers, tomato sauce, cheese and basil, all you have to do is combine the ingredients and let them bake until bubbly.
Even better, this dish is meal prep friendly, so feel free to assemble it the night before, pop it in the oven when you’re ready to eat and enjoy the leftovers (if you have any) throughout the rest of the week.
