So I had some bell peppers and had wanted to make stuffed bell peppers for some time.
Then I found this recipe on Dr. Oz and decided to put my own spin on it... and it came out amazing!!
(And also super healthy but don't tell the guys that) ;-)
All you need for Stuffed Bell Peppers is:
- 2 bell peppers (I like red, yellow, or orange)
- salsa
- lime juice (maybe a teaspoon? I don't cook with measurements)
- salsa
- 1 ripe avocado, mashed
- 2 cans tuna, drained
- garlic powder
- salt (use sparingly)
- black pepper
First I mixed the salsa, tuna, avocado, spices, and lime juice all together in a bowl. You can add or lessen the amount of each ingredient, it just depends on how lime-y or spice-y you want it.
Then slice the bell peppers in half, empty out the seeds, and fill with the tuna mixture!
It only serves 2 people so you can adjust for however many people you want to make this for. I was kinda suspicious about the tuna but mixed with the avocado and salsa, the tuna has a very mild taste!
It was so yummy, definitely a do-over!
Did you like my made-up words? Yeah I do that a lot...
Do you bake them or eat them just like that?
ReplyDeleteI just ate them like this since the extra crunch was good. You could probably bake the peppers before you put the filling in but I wouldn't bake it with the avocado in it.
