Directions Quinoa and Turkey Stuffed Tomatoes
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Cut the tops off each tomato and scoop out a small amount of the insides. Discard tops and insides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, cook and stir zucchini, green bell pepper, garlic, and salt until tender, about 10 minutes. Add ground turkey, cook and stir until turkey is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir quinoa and 1/2 of the tomato sauce into the ground turkey mixture.
Arrange tomatoes in a baking dish. Fill each tomato with turkey-quinoa mixture. Pour remaining tomato sauce over each stuffed tomato. Pour a 1/2 inch of water into the bottom of the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven until tomatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
