UNSTUFFED PEPPERS

      We love peppers and are always looking for a way to utilize them more, I haven't meet a pepper I didn't like!  I came up with this version that taste like a stuffed pepper but without all the work!

• 1# Jennie o ground turkey
• 3 medium green peppers
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1 28 oz can Italian stewed tomatoes
• 1 small can tomato sauce
• 2 tbsp brown sugar
• 1/8 tsp black pepper
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup uncooked long grain rice

     Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Clean the green peppers and cut into large chunks.  Lay the pepper chunks in a greased 8x8 baking dish.  Brown the ground turkey until no longer pink, salt and pepper to taste.  In a medium bowl mix the beef broth, tomato sauce, stewed tomatoes, brown sugar, salt and pepper.  Add to the ground turkey and heat until hot.  Sprinkle the rice over the peppers and pour the meat mixture over top.  Cover with foil and bake 45 minutes.  Check for doneness and bake longer if needed.
