Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large bell peppers
  • 1 pound ground beef or ground turkey
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • ¾ cup canned black beans (rinsed and drained)
  • ¾ cup sweet yellow corn (thawed)
  • 1 jalapeño (sliced, optional)
  • ½ to 1 cup reduced-fat shredded Mexican cheese blend

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare a baking sheet with nonstick oil or parchment paper.
  2. Core and halve the bell peppers lengthwise; cut each half into three equal parts to create 'chips'. Arrange them on the baking sheet.
  3. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef or turkey until fully browned. Add taco seasoning and water; stir well.
  4. Mix in black beans, corn, and jalapeños (if using) until heated through.
  5. Spoon the meat mixture over pepper chips and top with cheese.
  6. Bake for about 10 minutes until cheese is melted. Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
