Bell Pepper Nachos

3 steps

• Cut the bell peppers through the stem into sixths, remove the stem and seeds. Transfer to a large microwave-safe bowl, add the water. Cover and microwave until the pepper pieces are tender, about 4 minutes. Let cool slightly. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Arrange the pepper wedges close together on the baking sheet, cut sides-up.
• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, chili powder, cumin and salt and cook, stirring and breaking up into bite-size pieces, until browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler. Spoon some beef mixture onto each pepper piece. Sprinkle with cheese and broil until the cheese melts, about 1 minute.

You can top with guacamole, salsa, or sour cream. These additions are not already part of the recipe so need to be added when tracking.

Enjoy!
