  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gently crush tortilla strips in shipping bag.

    Mince garlic.

    Halve poblano peppers lengthwise and remove seeds. Poblano peppers can vary in spice level; most are mild, but a few can be quite hot. Wash hands and cutting board after prepping.

    Remove Italian sausage from casing, if necessary.

  2. 2

    Start the Peppers

    Place peppers on prepared baking sheet, cut-side down and spray with cooking spray.

    Roast in hot oven until peppers are tender, but not completely cooked, 10-15 minutes.

    Don't worry if peppers char a bit; this adds flavor to the dish.

    While peppers roast, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Cook the Filling

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add Italian sausage to hot pan. Break into smaller pieces until no pink remains and sausage reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 4-6 minutes.

    Add chili powder (to taste) and garlic. Stir occasionally until fragrant, 30-60 seconds.

    Add beans and their liquid, crushed tomatoes, 2 Tbsp. water, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir occasionally until warmed through and slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

  4. 4

    Fill the Peppers

    After 10-15 minutes, carefully remove peppers from oven. Carefully flip peppers cut-side up. Distribute filling evenly among pepper halves. Top with cheese.

  5. 5

    Finish Peppers and Finish Dish

    Roast in hot oven until cheese is melted, 6-8 minutes.

    Carefully remove from oven.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, garnishing with crushed tortilla strips and sour cream. Bon appétit!
