I like leftover turkey in sandwiches,salads
or a hot turkey sandwich with turkey gravy.
One of my favorite after Thanksgiving day
sandwiches is using turkey, mashed potatoes
and cranberry/orange relish on white bread.
However this year I thought I would try
something I have never made before, stuffed peppers.
Ingredients:
2 large green bell peppers
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 onion, peeled and diced
1/4 red pepper,seeded and diced
salt and black pepper to taste
1 cup shredded cooked turkey
2 cups marinara sauce
2 cups baby spinach
1 cup cooked white rice
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
Directions:
Gently cut the tops off the peppers
and scoop out the core and ribs.
Trim the inside of the top
and wash out the peppers.
Microwave on high power 4 minutes
or until just getting tender.
Oil a baking dish and preheat oven to 350F.
In a skillet heat oil to medium low
and add onion and red pepper,
sweat for 5 minutes or until soft.
Add turkey, marinara and salt and pepper to taste.
Bring to a gently simmer to heat through,
add spinach and stir until just wilted.
Remove from heat and fold in
half of the cheese and the rice.
Add the mixture to the pepper bottoms
and place in the baking dish.
Top with remaining cheese and the pepper tops.
Bake for 30 minutes and serve.
