Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |

Customize It Instructions

  • If using ground beef, break up until beef reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes.

  1. 1

    Start the Bell Peppers

    Stem bell peppers, halve lengthwise, then remove seeds and ribs.

    Place bell peppers, cut-side down, on prepared baking sheet. Evenly top with 1 tsp. olive oil, ranch seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Massage oil and seasonings into bell peppers.

    Roast in hot oven until tender, but still crisp, 13-15 minutes.

    While bell peppers roast, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Cook the Turkey Mixture

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add ground turkey, garlic salt, and rotisserie chicken seasoning to hot pan. Stir occasionally until no pink remains and turkey reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 7-9 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Stir in pesto, 1 Tbsp. water, and cream cheese until combined.

    While turkey mixture cooks, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Crisp the Bacon

    Line a microwave-safe plate with a paper towel.

    Evenly spread bacon on towel-lined plate and microwave until crisp, 1-2 minutes.

    Carefully remove from microwave.

  4. 4

    Stuff the Bell Peppers

    After 13-15 minutes, carefully remove sheet from oven. Flip bell peppers, cut-side up. Evenly divide turkey mixture between halves, then evenly top with shredded cheese. Peppers will be hot! Use a utensil/caution. If peppers are too large to fill completely, fill 4 halves and roast 3-4 minutes longer. Remaining pepper is yours to use as you please!

  5. 5

    Roast in hot oven until cheese is melted, 3-5 minutes.
