Delicious taco-stuffed poblano peppers bursting with flavor, perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a festive gathering.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 poblano peppers
  • 1 pound ground beef or turkey
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn, frozen or canned
  • 1 taco seasoning packet
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the tops off the poblano peppers and remove the seeds.
  2. In a skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef or turkey, cooking until browned.
