TURKEY BURGERS WITH MOZZARELLA AND ROASTED PEPPERS

Steps:

• If grilling, spray grill rack with cooking spray and fire it up.
• If pan-frying like me, spray pan, but wait to heat it until almost ready to cook the patties.
• Mix turkey, onion, vinegar, oregano, salt and black pepper in a bowl until combined; but try not to overwork the turkey, since too much handling will make it tough.
• Form mixture into four patties.
• Sear patties one minute per side, then turn down heat, or move to cooler part of grill.
• Cook 3-5 minutes per side, or until center isn't pink anymore.
• Top with roasted peppers and cheese, and keep on heat until cheese melts.
• Transfer to buns, add preferred condiments and enjoy.

STUFFED TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• Divide turkey into 4 equal sized rounds. Make 2 equal sized patties out of each round so you have 8 patties total. Sprinkle 4 of the patties with 2 tablespoons each of roasted red peppers and cheese, and top with remaining patties working the turkey around the edges to seal burgers closed. Season with salt and a few grinds of pepper. Grill or broil until cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.

THE BEST STUFFED PEPPERS

Steps:

• If your peppers don't sit upright on your cutting board, trim about 1/8-inch off the bottoms to even them out so they can stand without falling over. Cut the top off each pepper about 1/2-inch down. Remove and discard the stems, then finely chop the remaining flesh from the tops. Scoop out the seeds and as much of the membranes as you can. Place the peppers in a large microwave-safe bowl with 1/2 cup water. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave on high power for 12 minutes. Carefully uncover and let them sit until ready to assemble.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Spread the beef in an even layer and cook undisturbed until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Toss and continue to cook, breaking up any clumps with the back of a spoon and scraping up any browned bits from the pan until the meat is lightly browned all over, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the browned meat to a large bowl with a slotted spoon.
• Reduce the heat to medium. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and add the reserved chopped peppers, onions, garlic, thyme, 4 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender but not browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until falling apart and much of the liquid has evaporated, about 7 minutes.
• Stir in the tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly until brick red colored, about 1 minute. Stir in the wine and cook until the mixture is reduced, very thick and no smell of alcohol remains, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a boil. Transfer to the bowl with the beef. Stir in the rice until completely combined. (The mixture will be wet.) Season with salt and pepper.
• Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
• Place the peppers cut-side up in a 13-by-9-inch baking dish. Spoon the filling into the peppers, gently pressing it in with the back of a spoon. Be careful not to overstuff and split the sides of the peppers. Bake for 15 minutes. Then top with the cheese and continue baking until the filling is heated through and the cheese is browned in spots, 10 to 12 minutes.

ROASTED PEPPER-STUFFED BURGERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine ground beef, vinegar, the 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and the 1/4 teaspoon salt. Working on waxed paper, shape mixture into twelve 4-inch-diameter patties.
• Place cheese and roasted peppers on the center of six of the patties. Top with the remaining six patties; pinch edges together to seal.
• Place waxed paper with patties on a baking sheet and freeze about 1 hour or until firm. Layer frozen patties between sheets of waxed paper in a freezer container; seal and freeze for up to 1 month.
• To serve, thaw in a single layer in the refrigerator overnight. Sprinkle patties with additional salt and black pepper.
• For a charcoal or gas grill, place patties on the grill rack directly over medium-high heat. Cover and grill for 10 to 12 minutes or until patties are done (160°F), turning once halfway through grilling.
• In a small bowl combine mayonnaise and pesto. Spread cut sides of buns with mayonnaise mixture. Fill buns with burgers and basil leaves.

STUFFED TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• Divide turkey into 4 equal sized rounds. Make 2 equal sized patties out of each round so you have 8 patties total.

ROASTED STUFFED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Lightly oil shallow baking pan or cookie sheet with sides with 1 tablespoon of the oil.
• Cut each bell pepper in half; remove membranes and seeds but leave stalk intact. (The stalks are not edible, but they will help the peppers keep their shape while roasting.) Placed pepper halves hollow side up in pan.
• Score an "x" into bottom of each tomato; place in heatproof bowl. Pour boiling water over tomatoes. Let stand 1 minute. Drain tomatoes; use fingers to slide skins from tomatoes. Cut each tomato into quarters. Place tomato quarters evenly into pepper halves.
• Place garlic slices evenly in pepper halves; sprinkle with herbs. Drizzle remaining 2 tablespoons oil over pepper halves; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Roast 50 to 60 minutes. Transfer cooked pepper halves to serving dish. Pour any juices left in pan over peppers. Crumble cheese into each pepper half. Serve with French bread.

STUFFED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and heat the oil in a large pan. Add the onion and cook for a few mins to soften. Add the garlic and beef, and cook until the meat is browned - break it up with a spoon as it cooks. Add the tomatoes, oregano, stock cube and ketchup. Season well, give everything a good stir and cover with a lid. Simmer for 30 mins.
• Meanwhile, halve the peppers and scoop out the seeds and white membrane. Place cut-side up in a roasting tin, season and bake for 20 mins.
• When the mince is cooked, divide it between the softened peppers. Return to the oven for 10 mins, sprinkled with cheese. Scatter with basil leaves before serving.

BEEF & RED PEPPER BURGERS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Put the pepper on a baking tray and rub with 1/2 tbsp oil. Roast in the oven for 25-30 mins, turning once halfway through. Remove and allow to cool slightly before finely chopping.
• Tip the mince, roasted pepper, egg, carrot and breadcrumbs into a large bowl and mix well. Using your hands, shape the mixture into six equal burgers.
• Heat the remaining oil in a large, heavy-based, non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Fry the burgers for 5-6 mins each side until cooked through. Top with slices of cheddar. Spread the rolls with mayo, add the burgers and top with slices of cucumber.

ROASTED STUFFED BELL PEPPERS

• When the peppers are cool enough to handle, peel the skins and remove stems and seeds(see below). Use immediately(in recipe) or make extra and drizzle with olive oil and store in the fridge for up to 2 months.
• Heat olive oil in a saute pan until very hot. Add the garlic, onion, and gingerroot and saute until you can smell the aroma. Add rice and mix well. Remove from the heat. Add the mozzarella, cream, curry powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well and cool before stuffing the peppers.
