Steps:
- Prepare the peppers by cutting them in half through the stem, remove the core, place in a large baking dish and set aside. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Heat the oil in a large pan over medium/high heat. Add the onion, a pinch of salt and pepper, and cook for 5-7 minutes. Add the carrots and mushrooms and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
- Add the turkey meat, salt, pepper, garlic powder, oregano, paprika, red pepper flakes, and break up the meat while incorporating all the spices. Cook for 5-7 minutes until meat is no longer pink.
- Add the tomato paste and stir to combine. Add the crushed tomatoes and let the mixture simmer over low heat for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Adjust seasonings at this time adding more salt, pepper or red pepper flakes to taste. Add the cooked rice, spinach, and basil and stir to combine. Turn off the heat and add the lemon juice.
- Spoon the mixture into the halved bell peppers until nice and full. Top each pepper with a little bit of cheese. Pour the chicken stock into the bottom of the baking dish and cover the dish lightly with foil. Bake for 20-25 minutes until peppers are just tender. Serve immediately!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion, poblano chile pepper, jalapeno pepper, and garlic in the hot oil until onion and peppers are softened, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir rice into onion mixture; cook until rice is lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Stir vegetable broth, tomatoes with green chile peppers, and corn into the rice mixture; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until broth is absorbed, 7 to 10 minutes. Season rice mixture with salt and pepper; stir in 1/2 cup Monterey Jack cheese and cilantro. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
- Place the tops back onto each green bell pepper; wrap each pepper loosely with aluminum foil.
- Bake wrapped peppers in the preheated oven until softened, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove peppers from oven and lower oven's temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cool peppers completely, about 20 minutes.
- Stand green bell peppers upright in an 8x8-inch baking dish. Use the aluminum foil from earlier to 'nest' the peppers if necessary. Fill each pepper with rice mixture and top with panko bread crumbs and remaining Monterey Jack cheese. Place tops back onto each green bell pepper.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, 25 to 30 minutes.

SPICY STUFFED BELL PEPPERS (VEGETARIAN/VEGAN/GLUTEN-FREE)
With hearty lentils, brown rice, and vegetables, as well as some sassy seasonings, nobody will miss the meat in this recipe I created for company. I served them with a side of sweet potato fries and watermelon for dessert. Any extra filling makes an excellent midnight snack or lunch.

If you love the cuisine from the Middle East, you are sure to love these. I have also made these using ground chicken but I think beef tastes best.
