Stuffed bell peppers

Bell peppers stuffed with ground beef, sweet potato and taco seasoning, gratinated with cheese and served with fresh vegetables.

Ingredients

• 1.5 pcs Sweet potato (195g)
• 130 g Ground beef
• 0.25 clove Garlic (1g)
• 2 pcs Bell pepper, red (290g)
• 1 tbsp Taco seasoning mix (8g)
• 1 dl Zucchini (55g)
• 2 leaves Lettuce (80g)
• 1 tbsp Taco sauce (17g)
• 1 tbsp Low-fat quark (18g)
• 0.5 dl Cucumber (28g)
• 2 slices White cheese, light 16% fat (26g)

Method

1. Cut the sweet potato into small cubes and bake in the oven at 200 degrees for about 15 minutes.
2. Fry the ground beef together with the chopped garlic and zucchini in a frying pan - add the taco seasoning.
3. When the sweet potato is done, mix it together with the meat and season to taste (e.g. salt, pepper).
4. Spoon the meat into the bell peppers, sprinkle cheese on top and gratinate in the oven for 15-20 minutes. The bell peppers can be roasted on their own in the oven for a bit before being filled. That gives the best result.
5. Serve with chopped cucumber, lettuce, taco sauce and low-fat quark.
