"Using ground turkey instad of ground beef cuts back on calories & fat content. It still can have lots of flavour - this recipe does. Use whatever oolour pepper that is on sale that week. I like my pepper just heatd through so it is actually still like raw but warm. If you like your pepper soft pre cook them in boiling water for 3 minutes or microwave them for a minute or so. There is always seems to be some stuffing left over. I like to spread it around stuffed pepper in the baking dish and cook it along with the peppers. NB The photo obviously was taken before the final step of adding the cheese."
