Easy Stuffed Sweet Peppers

Last night I wanted something healthy and my fridge is getting pretty bare, time to go grocery shopping. I decided to just wing it and make up a recipe with what I had. It turned out so good, I wanted to share it



Ingredients:
1 can crushed pineapple
1 jar of Bruschetta (spaghetti sauce)
1 can of Rotel tomatoes
Meat balls
Sweet peppers
Cheese

Preparation:
I took the meat balls and placed them in the pot along with the tomato sauce, pineapple, and spaghetti sauce and cooked them on lo-medium for about 30 minutes (I used meatballs that were already fully cooked). While the meat balls were cooking, I cleaned and cut my sweet peppers in half. I put them on a pan ready to throw into my toaster (is you do not have a toaster the oven will work just as well). After the meatballs and everything were cooked and ready to go, I cut them up and placed them inside the sweet peppers, I added a little sauce from the pot and sprinkled cheese on top. I toasted/broiled the peppers until the cheese was melted.

I served it with a fresh green vegetable salad and vinaigrette dressed.

Shakeology


So I have been using Shakeology for 3 weeks and I am in heaven.  I have not had any craving for sugar and it has completely helped me stay on track with the 21 Day Fix that I started two weeks ago!  I also quit drinking coffee, after 20 years of being an avid coffee drinker!  I haven't had one head ache and I even went cold turkey! Plus, it taste amazing and I have been mixing it with water? I have never been able to mix my protein with water, yuck.  Anyways, it's a must have!
