Ingredients
 

  • 2 bell peppers
  • 16 ounces ground chicken breast or 99% fat-free ground turkey
  • 1 head of broccoli
  • ½ cup reduced fat, 2% milk cheddar cheese
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasonings
  • parsley for topping
  • ¼ cup chicken broth fat-free, low sodium

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Slice and deseed/core peppers. Place on a greased baking tray, cut side up, and bake for 20 minutes, until desired wellness
  • Meanwhile, grease a large, tall pan with cooking spray and heat up over medium heat
  • Add chicken and begin to break up as you cook. Once slightly broken up, sprinkle with all the seasonings and continue to cook and break up
  • Cook the chicken until almost completely cooked, until almost all the pink is gone
  • Chop broccoli head up into very small pieces
  • Add the broth to the pan with the ground chicken. Add broccoli and cover to steam broccoli for 5 minutes, until broccoli is soft and chicken is completely cooked
  • Ad cheese and mix to melt
  • Once cheese is melted, evenly divide mixture into each pepper
  • My fiance loves to add ⅛ cup of extra cheese onto each of his peppers halves then pop it back in the oven until it has melted! (1 point)
