"Ground Turkey Stuffed Peppers"

Hello! Hello! Back again with some recipes. The one I'm sharing today is my version of stuffed bell peppers which are "Ground Turkey Stuffed Peppers" I was needing to venture out from my norm to reinvent what was once my norm only have it be in compliance with my diet and have it taste even better than I remember. I remember years ago having stuffed bell peppers and I ate them because I like bell peppers but I didn't do a dance or anything. Well I'm not telling you my new creation made me boogie down or anything like that but I really liked the change up of its flavor from what I traditionally used to have. (that would be the cinnamon and cumin I think) Anyway, I think you'll like them too! Here's to happy cooking and happy eating! Tastefully gluten free!.... ~ Jan
