Author: Thyme and Tarragon
Recipe type: Main
Serves: 4 peppers
Ingredients
4 sweet bell peppers - red, yellow, or orange - cut in half lengthwise and deseeded
1 pound ground beef
2 cups sliced okra
2 cups chopped spinach
¾ cup broth
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
oil to brush peppers - olive, grapeseed, or coconut
Instructions
You can either cut the peppers in half lengthwise or cut off the top and deseed them. I have done them both ways and either way works it's pretty much whichever you prefer.
Brown hamburger meat.
Add other ingredients, except bell peppers, and stir.
Heat oven to 375 degrees. Spray baking dish or rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
Brush peppers with oil. Spoon filling into peppers and place them on the baking sheet or in the baking dish. If you cut the tops off the peppers place them back on top of each pepper.
Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil, turn up to 400 degrees and bake for another 10-15 minutes or until peppers are slightly brown.
Optional toppings: sliced avocado or grated goat cheese.
