Curry Turkey Stuffed Peppers

So after a few people I know had some major successes on the 17 Day Diet, I decided to try it out. I NEVER try diets, but I saw such great results with 4 people I know, I decided why not. So far I have not been dissappointed. I've lost about 11lbs in the 1st few weeks, so I'll keep it going.

So this recipe is 17 Day Diet friendly, for the 2nd phase of the diet. I've been getting pretty creative with making diet dinners seem more exciting, and this one was a big hit with me and Mateus.

Ingredients:
1lb ground turkey breast
1 cup wild rice
3 large green peppers
1 cup red pepper diced small
1/2 cup shredded carrot
1/2 cup chopped scallion
1/2 cup curry salsa (I used The Brooklyn Salsa Company, but any curry sauce  would taste good I'm sure)
Juice of 1 lime
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
Salt, pepper and Olive oil as needed.


Directions:
Boil the wild rice according to directions (this freakin took forever for some reason, but was worth it), rinse and set aside.
Cut each green pepper in half, take out the seeds and ribs, and put on a baking sheet into a 350 oven to start to soften them.
In a large pan, cook the turkey, breaking it up as much as you can, and remove from pan. Return the pan to the heat and saute all the veggies until soft. Once softened, add back the turkey, and add the cooked rice. Add the lime juice, cilantro, and curry salsa, combining everything. I kept my mixture a little on the dryer side, but you could always add more salsa, or lime, or olive oil to keep it a bit more saucy.
Take the peppers from the oven, and add the turkey mixture to each, piling it up high! Return to the oven for 20 minutes to let the peppers cook through.

So my peppers stayed a little crispy, but I was fine with it. I think next time I will add more curry, and cook for longer in the oven to they become a little most softened and brown on top.
