Clean Eating Mag: Stuffed Turkey Peppers

I’m leaning towards “Yes!” on subscribing to Clean Eating Magazine…their recipes are just awesome and I love how truly “clean” they are.

I finally got to test out another CE recipe I’ve been dying to try: Stuffed Turkey Peppers.

Pre-cooking the peppers in boiling water. The different colors are so pretty!

Finished filling with the wild rice now.

The recipe made SO MUCH FILLING! Look – those peppers are fully stuffed and there’s still a ton of filling left in the pan.

I filled a tupperware with the leftover stuffing – will have to figure out something to do with these leftovers…I’m thinking soup!

OH NO!!! Some of my peppers fell over!

No worries, though – they will taste the same later.

I made a little something with the Stonyfield Oikos Organic Greek Vanilla Yogurt I got for free with the coupon they sent me, along with some toppings I purchased on my own.

Yogurt parfait!

Toppings: 1/2 banana (sliced), Trader Joe’s dry-toasted almonds, whole flaxseed, and ground flaxseed.

20% Calcium. I think I haven’t been getting enough Calcium lately, so I’m going to work on that.

On the container: “We give 10% of our profits to efforts that help protect and restore the earth.” Love that!

So simple, but so good…I’m enjoying another parfait as I work on this post, actually! I probably won’t blog about it, but it is on my Twitter!

Enjoy the rest of the weekend everyone!

  1. Love your blog and healthy recipes/eating. We usually 'parboil' our peppers in the microwave – not sure if your apt. has one. It's really fast with a tiny bit of water in a tall Corelle casserole with a glass lid. I've even finished the peppers in there once filled. If I top them with crumbs, I'll use the oven so they'll brown. The taller casserole nestles the peppers and keeps them upright. I have varying sizes – large and low, smaller and tall that were part of a set.

  2. Those stuffed peppers look SO good!!! You did an awesome job!! Something I have not made in a long time. I love that you used groundturkey 🙂

    Oikios is sooo good. I dont think my day is complete without some good greek yogurt! I prefered the honey flavor vs. vanilla…and normally I am a vanilla kind of woman!
