Directions
Healthy Quinoa and Ground Turkey Stuffed Peppers, A healthy twist on stuffed peppers! I served these with mashed cauliflower – yum!, I found the recipe a tad bland, but I can see how it would go over well with a lot of people My peppers were really small so I had almost half of the filling left over – I’m sure it would have balanced out of I’d had more capacious peppers Overall, quite good , can I make these ahead and freeze for a few weeks ?
