Clean Eating Turkey White Lasagna


Lately, I have been craving lasagna so badly! Boy...this was delicious. The only thing that was missing was the non-clean items. :)

Trust me, you have to make this. Oh my word.. Remember to let it sit in the pan for a little bit - it broke apart on me because I couldn't wait to dig in. 

Click HERE to find the recipe. Sometimes I change up the ingredients in recipes, but this one I have to give her credit. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!


By the way, you will have loads of leftovers if you are just a couple. Yes! :)

Menu Plan Recipe: Turkey Stuffed Peppers

  

Boy..oh boy.. these bad boys were absolutely delicious. To cut back on the calories I used ground turkey, however, you can use ground beef if you prefer to. 

Right on to the fabulously recipe. 

This recipe is on meal plan week 2 for Monday, June 10. Click HERE to check it out. 



Ingredients
1/2 pound of ground turkey
1 cup of black beans, drained and rinsed
1 large tomato, diced
2 tbsp chopped cilantro
2 tsp cumin
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (add more if you would like more of a kick)
2 green peppers
1/3 cup of water
shredded cheese
1 garlic clove


Directions
In a large skillet, brown the turkey and season with salt. 
Add garlic, black beans, cilantro, cumin, and diced tomatoes. Simmer for 20 minutes. 
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 
Cut peppers lengthwise, removing stem and seeds. 
Place peppers in an oven-proof dish and fill each pepper with 1/2 cup of turkey mixture. 
Pour 1/3 cup of water on the bottom of the dish. 
Cover with foil and bake for 40-45 minutes or until peppers are soft.
Add cheese and bake uncovered for another 5 minutes. 
Enjoy!

If you have extra turkey mixture just pop it into a freezer container and save for a quick and easy meal! :)
