Traditional Italian stuffed shells are one of my favorite all time foods, so when I saw this twist on stuffed shells I thought why not?  These shells are stuffed with ground turkey, peppers, onion, plain nonfat Greek yogurt, and Mexican blend cheese over a bed of salsa and topped with more salsa and cheese.

Ingredients:

12 jumbo shells

1 pound lean ground turkey

1 bell pepper diced

½ onion diced

2 tablespoons taco seasoning

5 ounces plain nonfat Greek yogurt

1 large jar salsa

2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese

Directions:

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil.  Cook shells according to package directions and drain.
2. Meanwhile add ground turkey, pepper, and onion to a nonstick pan and cook over medium heat as you break up the meat.  Sprinkle taco seasoning over the mixture and cook until the meat is cooked through.
3. Spread a layer of salsa in the bottom of an 8×8 or 7×10 pan.
4. Remove meat mixture from heat and stir in Greek yogurt and 1 cup of the shredded cheese.
5. Stuff shells with the meat mixture and place over the salsa.
6. Top with more salsa and shredded cheese.
7. Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes if cooking immediately.  Bake for 45 minutes if cooking after refrigerating.
8. Enjoy!
9. Note: I food prepped in advance and baked after refrigerating. I covered with aluminum foil sprayed with nonstick spray. I baked for 30 minutes with foil and 15 minutes without foil.
