    Notes

    Stick with red, yellow, or orange colored peppers- they’re sweeter than the green, although green works if fine if that’s all you’ve got. Swap out the ground beef for ground sausage, if you prefer. It adds a boost of flavor! I like to top my bowls with a spoonful of Greek yogurt, or a few tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese.
