Preparation

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicon mat.

Place the peppers on the baking sheet, and mix together the browned taco meat, black beans, salsa, frozen corn, 1 cup Horizon Mexican cheese, and the cooked rice in a large bowl.

Divide the mixture amongst the peppers. Bake for 30 minutes.
Add the remainder of the Horizon Mexican cheese to the top of the peppers and bake for 5 more minutes.

To serve top with Horizon Sour Cream and diced tomatoes, cilantro, and pickled jalapeños.

Recipe Notes:
You can also just cut the tops off of the four peppers and make four BIG peppers rather than 8 half peppers. If you cannot find taco turkey meat, just buy ground turkey or ground beef and add some taco seasoning while browning it.
