Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375F.

Roast the bell peppers, hollow side up, on a baking sheet while you prepare the other ingredients.

While the peppers are roasting, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook until browned, breaking up the sausage into small pieces as it cooks.

Once the sausage is browned, drain the grease and return the sausage to the pan. Add apples spinach and spices. Cook an additional 5 minutes, until spinach is wilted and apples are softened.

Remove the bell peppers from the oven and scoop sausage and apple mixture evenly between bell pepper halves. Return to the oven and roast for an additional 30 minutes, until peppers are softened and beginning to brown.
