Turkey Stuffed Peppers
I've made this recipe about two or three times and it's a favorite!
Turkey Stuffed Peppers
Turkey Stuffed Peppers
Ingredients:
Directions:
Heat oven to 400°. Spray a little olive oil spray in a medium size saute pan and heat on a medium flame. Add onion, garlic and cilantro to the pan. Saute about 2 minutes and add ground turkey. Season with salt and garlic powder, and cumin and brown meat for several minutes until meat is completely cooked through. Add 1/4 cup of tomato sauce and 1/2 cup of chicken broth, mix well and simmer on low for about 5 minutes. Combine cooked rice and meat together.
Cut the bell peppers in half lengthwise, and remove all seeds. Place in a baking dish. Spoon the meat mixture into each pepper half and fill it with as much as you can. Place all stuffed pepper halves on the baking dish and pour the remainder of the chicken broth on the bottom of the pan. Cover tight with aluminum foil and bake for about 35 minutes. Top with shredded cheddar cheese and enjoy.
Thanks Skinnytaste for the recipe! :)

Carrie Underwood Concert!
We decided to make a date night out of it. My parents are going to watch Brooke and we'll be able to get to Roanoke in the afternoon, go to dinner, concert, and then stay the night at Hotel Roanoke!! I've never stayed there and kind of always wanted to so it's the perfect reason! Plus, it's a Hilton property so we were able to use Ben's points!
Looking forward to our date night :)

Brooke and Bailey are best buddies. They sure do love each other. Here is a picture from the other day of Brooke pushing Bailey around the house in her puppy dog. Bailey sure is a good sport. :)

11 Months!
Brooke is already 11 months old! We just can't believe it. She is turning into a little toddler more and more every day. She was sick most of Feb...it was pretty rough but we are so thankful we are all feeling better now. She'll be ONE in less than a month! Don't worry, the party planning is well under way!! :)
11 Month Stats:
-
21.8 pounds
-
Size 12 to 18 month clothes – just started to
wear a few 18 month sizes
-
Size 4 diapers
-
Still sleeps 11 hours and takes a morning then
afternoon nap (both around 1 ½ hours each)
-
Starting to get more brave with standing and
balancing all by herself. We’ve counted
a total of “16 Mississippi’s”.
-
Loves all her books and play area
-
Loves to close doors
- Loves to dancing to any music! :)
-
Can walk behind her puppy dog pushing him all by
herself
-
She was basically sick all of February :( Double ear infection, Pink Eye, Sinuses,
stomach bug,….etc. Ben also got the flu
pretty bad … fever of 102/103 for 3 days.
It was rough.
-
We went on a mini family vacation for Ben’s
birthday and Valentine’s Day. We went to
our favorite cabins in the Smokey Mountains.
It was Brooke’s first trip to Tennessee.
She had a blast! :)
- Went to 3 or 4 swim lessons at the Rec Center. We missed a few since she was sick and we were out of town.
