Campfire Stuffed Pepper Hash
Ingredients:
5-6 snacking peppers4 large peppers – green are most commonly used, but we prefer red, yellow, and orange peppers in our home.1/2 lb ground turkey – you can use beef, but turkey tastes just a good and is a lighter option1 small onion1 cup cooked rice – use brown if you want a more hearty meal.1/2 teaspoon garlic powder1/2 teaspoon onion powder1/8 teaspoon cumin1/4 teaspoon chili powder1/4 teaspoon paprikaSalt and pepper to taste — I recommend about an 1/8 teaspoon eachColby Jack cheese for toppingInstructions:
Wash all produce.If cooking over a fire, spread the coals out to give you a medium-high heat and set the iron skillet on the cooking grate. Dice the onion and snacking peppers and add to the skillet with the ground turkey. Cook until no longer pink. Drain the excess oil.Add the cooked rice to the skillet and stir in garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until thoroughly coated. Cut the tops off of the large peppers and remove all seeds. Slice into fourths and set aside. We’ll leave these uncooked for extra crunch!Spoon the filling onto the fresh cut pepper slices and top with shredded cheese! You can even add sour cream for dipping or a squeeze of lime for some zing!Campfire Walking Tacos
