Preparation

Preheat oven to 350ºF.

In a large saute pan, add ground turkey, poultry seasoning, garlic and onion. Cook over medium heat. Once the turkey is about 3/4 of the way cooked, add mini peppers. Cook for another 5 minutes.

Add tomato paste, chicken broth and spinach. Mix well. Add Italian seasoning and cayenne pepper. Mix. Lastly, mix in cooked brown rice. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Cut the tops off the bell peppers and spoon out the inner seeds. Add the turkey mixture to each pepper, filling to the top. Sprinkle a little cheese on top of each filled pepper.
