It started without a recipe and evolved into a tasty dinner that I will be repeating sometime in the future, much to my tummy's happiness.
The starring players...
Portabella Mushroom Caps
Ground Turkey
Diced Bell Peppers
Chopped Green Onions
Shredded Cheese
...add in a few shakes of black pepper, crushed red pepper flakes and 3 cloves of garlic.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cook the turkey in a pan until not-quite cooked.
- While turkey is cooking, take care of the mushrooms and prep veggies:
- Clean out mushroom caps, a spoon and paper towel are all you need to make quick work of this.
- Arrange mushroom caps on a lightly sprayed cookie sheet. I line my baking stone with foil and eliminate any messy clean-up.
- Dice peppers and green onions.
- Drain liquid from pan.
- Return to pan with turkey to stove and add the seasoning.
- Add in diced peppers and onions and cook until turkey is cooked through.
- Once the turkey mixture is done, spoon into mushroom caps and sprinkle with cheese.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
- Enjoy a tasty and healthy meal!
Medifast followers: I made this recipe to serve 2 full Lean & Green meals. The turkey was a little shy of a full serving of lean, the small amount of cheese made up the difference. The mushroom caps equaled 2 greens and the peppers & onions made up the remaining green.
If you are not following a specific diet plan, go ahead and zest this up to your liking. I'd recommend something like a simple tomato sauce with the turkey & vegetable stuffing.
