Viking Food List 2010

So with the new year coming, I thought I would do everyone a favor and post some foods that you should throw on your shopping lists. The easiest and most effective way to get the body you want is by changing the foods you eat. It makes sense right? If you put organic, whole, unprocessed foods into your body… your body has nothing left to store as fat because it can use the foods for energy and sustainment. Try weeding out the processed foods in your diet for 2010 and watch the difference in the way you look and feel.

I don’t know but stuffed peppers are delicious! And it turns out this recipe is pretty darn good for your body as well, give it a try.

Stuffed Peppers

delicious stuffed peppers, fit for a viking.

Ingredients:

4-6 bell peppers (red, yellow, or green)
1 lb ground lean turkey (or lean ground beef)
2- 15 oz cans of tomato sauce, or 1 – 30 oz can (Only tomato! No sugar!)
2 cups favorite veggies, squash, spinach, diced carrots
3 tablespoons of fresh basil (3 tsp dried)
3 tablespoons of fresh oregano (2-3 tsp dried)
1/2 small onion (diced)
salt and pepper to taste

Preheat the oven to 325. Brown the ground turkey with the onion, and the rest of your veggies. Combine the tomato sauce, basil and oregano. Cut the tops off of the peppers and remove the seeds. Combine the ground turkey, veggies, and half of the tomato sauce mixture, and stuff inside the hollowed out peppers.

Pour the other half of the tomato sauce over the top of the peppers. Bake at 325 for about 50-60 minutes, or until the peppers are soft. You can sprinkle a little Parmesan, on top during the last 15-20 minutes.

Eat up… Natural, Healthy, and Lean!
