- 1 - 1 1/4 lbs ground turkey
- 4 peppers: 1 yellow pepper, 1 red, 1 orange and 1 green, cut each pepper into 3 2" rings, approx. Use whatever color pepper you like best. You want approximately 8-9 rings.
- 2 pieces of bread soaked in milk, squeezed and broken up
- 1 medium onion diced (use pre-diced from the store if you are pressed for time)

- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1/4 cup salsa
- 1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 extra large or 2 small eggs
- 1 chipolte diced 2 if you are daring
- 1/2 cup salsa for the topping I use mild
- 1/2 cup Mexican shredded cheese or slices of peppe rjack either or. Please use which ever you like best. I have used both and like both. Different flavors. I would probably use the pepperjack but equally good.
- Serve with my sauted black beans and romaine hearts with avacado and cilantro lime dressing
- First lets prepare the peppers.
- Cut the top and bottom of of each pepper and then cut the pepper into 3 rings, depending on the size.
- You want the rings to be about 2" thick.
- : Try to pick out large nice round peppers this makes for a great ring to stuff your meatloaf mixture in.
- You can use red, yellow, orange or green whatever you like best.
- Now, the meatloaf.
- Add all the ingredients in a large bowl and mix until well combined.
- Do not over mix.
- Preheat the oven to 350.
- While the oven preheats ... place the pepper rings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil and stuff with the meatloaf mixture into each pepper ring.
- Mound up slightly.
- Top the meatloaf with salsa and then bake for 30-45 minutes.
- The last 5 minutes top with cheese and continue to cook until melted.
- Remove and let set just a minute or two before serving.
- I love to serve this my Mexican mashed potatoes and a salad with a cilantro lime vinaigrette.
- Both I have posted as well.
