Directions

  1. To Assemble And Freeze: Coat a 13x9x2-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine turkey, bread crumbs, egg substitute, diced onion, sage, thyme, salt and black pepper.
  2. Fill each pepper half with an equal amount of the turkey mixture. Place in prepared baking dish.
