About Unstuffed pepper casserole

Unstuffed Pepper Casserole is a wholesome twist on traditional stuffed peppers, drawing inspiration from classic Eastern European and Mediterranean cuisines. This dish combines ground protein—typically lean ground turkey or beef—with vibrant bell peppers, onions, garlic, and hearty tomatoes, served over a bed of whole-grain rice or cauliflower rice. Packed with colorful vegetables, it’s a great source of vitamins A and C, fiber, and antioxidants. The use of lean meat makes it lower in saturated fat, while optional low-fat cheese enhances flavor without excess calories. This casserole is a single-pan meal that's convenient, nutrient-dense, and ideal for busy weeknights. While deliciously filling, sodium content can vary depending on canned ingredients, so opt for reduced-sodium versions to keep it heart-healthy. Free from deep-fried elements, it delivers comfort food satisfaction in a guilt-free package, suitable for those seeking balanced nutrition without sacrificing flavor.
