Do you ever feel like you just need total COMFORT FOOD!! 

 Today was one of those days.  I needed something different 

and tasty for dinner. I love getting creative in the kitchen and 

making new concoctions!!


Here is one of my more creative meals of the 21 Day Fix 

Recipes: Stuffed Peppers!






 21 Day Fix Recipe Stuffed Peppers | 



What you’ll need:


2 Sweet bell peppers of your color choice.

1 Yellow container of brown rice, or quinoa, cooked just shy

of done

1/2 Yellow container of black beans, (canned) rinsed and

 drained

1/2 Yellow container of frozen corn

2 Red containers of browned low fat ground turkey or beef, 

seasoned with 21 Day Fix Southwestern Seasoning  (Or left 

over taco meat)

1 Green container of petite diced tomatoes (no sugar added, 

read the ingredients.  Should only contain tomatoes and 

ascorbic acid)

1 Green container of tomato sauce (same as diced tomatoes. 

 Read the label.)

1 Blue container of your favourite cheese


Directions:

1. Cook brown rice, or quinoa according to directions in your 

eating plan.

2.  While rice/quinoa is simmering, brown ground meat and 

season with Southwest seasoning.  Set aside to cool.

3. Drain and rinse black beans.  

4. Portion out diced tomatoes, corn, and tomato sauce, and 

cheese.

5.  Combine in large bowl meat, tomatoes, corn, rice/quinoa,

 beans, and sauce.

6.  Cut caps off of peppers and pull out ribs and core.  Rinse 

excess seeds out.

7. Stuff peppers with filling.

8. Sprinkle with cheese.

9.  Bake at 375 Fahrenheit for 40-45 minutes, depending on 

the strength of your oven.  Cheese should be melted and 

filling should be heated all the way through.

Dive in!  This recipe serves 2 with the following counts per 

stuffed pepper:  1 Red, 1 Yellow, 2 Green, 1/2 Blue.

Yum!  These also store well for lunch the next day too!  Make 

a double batch!
