Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Cook 3 cups of dried rice according to package instructions in a rice cooker or small pot.
While rice cooks, rinse and slice the tops off the bell peppers. Remove seeds and membranes. Add to baking dish and place in oven for 25 - 30 minutes.
Wash and dice the yellow onion. Wash mushrooms.
Heat a large pan over medium heat. Add ground turkey and cook until browned and cooked through. Add chili powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, oregano, and salt. Remove from heat and set aside.
In the same pan add onion, mushrooms, and spinach to the pan. Cook until veggies are softened and spinach is wilted.
Rinse and strain the black beans. Stir into veggie mixture for about 3 - 4 minutes or until warm.
Remove bell peppers from oven and fill with rice, veggie mixture, and taco mixture. Add avocados, guacamole, or salsa to the plate. Enjoy!
Pro Tip: If you have dietary restrictions for people or picky eaters, you can make the beans, tofu, veggies, and turkey separately. Then, everyone can assemble their own bell peppers however they prefer!
