Stuffed Bell Peppers Recipe

Thursday, July 16th, 2009

Notes:
This stuffed bell pepper dish is a great recipe, easy for any skill level cook and great for dinner parties or if you like to make and store extra.

Servings: 6-8

Ingredients:
1 Medium Onion
1 Package Extra Lean Turkey Meat
1 Large Can Stewed Tomatoes
2 Cups Brown Rice (Uncooked Measurement)
1 Small Can Rotel
1 Tbsp Olive Oil
Garlic (Clove or Jarred - not in oil)
6-8 Bell Peppers
Salsa or Tomatoe Paste

Directions:
Boil rice in pot with water (follow directions on package) set aside once finished (this is great to start at the same time as tthe Onions and Garlic). Saute Onion and Garlic in Olive Oil until both are tender, set aside and add the turkey to the skillet and cook the Ground turkey all the way through (like you would ground beef). Once cooked add in the onions & Garlic, cooked rice, rotel (do not strain), strained stewed tomatoes, let mixture sit on low heat while you cut open the of the green ppeppers ( I always set the tops aside for a healthy snack later). Hollow out the center of the peppers and fill with one cup of the rice mixture each. Once stuffed top with the salsa or tomatoe paste and bake for 30mintues at 350 degrees.

Easy Chicken Quesadillas Recipe

Sunday, July 12th, 2009

Notes:
Simple chicken quesadillas with kick- if you’re like me and don’t like veggies!  But green and red peppers and onions can be added if you do!  Total of 425 calories per serving, it makes a quick dinner for a hungry family.

Servings: 6

Ingredients:
1.5 lbs boneless-skinless chicken breast, thin sliced
1 package Old El Paso Taco Seasoning
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup water
6 Mission Flour Tortillas, 8-inch
1 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (Mexican Cheese blend also works well)
1/2 cup green/red peppers (optional)
1/4 cup red onions (optional)

Directions:
Mix Taco seasoning, olive oil and water in a shallow bowl. Add chicken, thoroughly covering in prepared seasoning mix. Heat up the old Foreman grill (or the real grill, or skillet) and grill chicken for approx 8 mins, or until done. Slice chicken into thin strips/chunks (whatever your preference) and disperse amongst 6 tortillas. Add 1/4 cup cheese per tortilla, fold and stick in the microwave for about 1.5 mins. (also, add veggies if you prefer) Remove, allow to cool, and enjoy!

*Hint - my son likes to dip his in Ranch dressing.
