Chipotle Stuffed Peppers
This recipe was a new one for me. I found my inspiration in this month’s Rachel Ray magazine, and tweaked it a bit. And I will say it is amazing! By using ground turkey instead of beef, this recipe is healthier and still tastes amazing! Grain free, low in fat, and high in protein, this recipe is great for anyone who is looking for a healthy dish with a spicy kick!
Chipotle Stuffed Peppers
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 can organic black beans, drained and rinsed
- 3 chipotle peppers in adobo, diced
- 3 Tablespoons adobo sauce from peppers
- 1/4 cup salsa of your choice
- 1/2 small sweet onion, diced
- 4 bell peppers, sliced in half (I used 2 red and 2 orange, but any will work!)
For garnish:
- 1 jalapeno, thinly sliced
- Sour cream
- Chili powder
- Preheat oven to 400. Spray 9×13 casserole dish with non-stick spray.
- Cook turkey in skillet until no longer pink.
- Stir in onion, black beans, chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, and salsa until well mixed.
- Place halved peppers in casserole dish. Fill with meat mixture.
- Bake peppers for 20 minutes.
- Top each pepper with a dollop of sour cream, one or two jalapeno slices, and a sprinkle of chili powder.
Try serving these peppers with corn bread muffins or Spanish rice to round out the meal!

Summer Veggie Bake
Life has been crazy this week, and I will admit that I have not gotten myself into the gym yet. But! That does not mean I give up! This fitness thing is a continuing journey and one bump in the road doesn’t mean you turn around and give up!
That being said, eating healthy is one thing that I still try to stick with at least 2 out of 3 main meals of the day (plus snacks). This side dish is so delicious and is a great way to use up all those garden vegetables! I was a little skeptical when I first made this, because I’ve never really been a huge fan of zucchini or yellow squash. Once I tried it, I was instantly hooked! I’ve seen a few variations of this same recipe on other websites, but modified it to what I had in the house and was very happy with the results!
Summer Veggie Bake
- 2 large russet potatoes, scrubbed clean
- 1 large yellow squash
- 1 large zucchini squash
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon crushed red chili pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese
- Slice potatoes, yellow squash, and zucchini into slices, about 1/4 inch thick.

- Drizzle olive oil over the vegetables. Top with seasoning.
- Bake vegetables at 425 for 30 minutes, covered.
