KENTUCKY LEGEND'S STUFFED PEPPERS with TURKEY and RICE
6 red bell peppers
2 cups tomato sauce
3 cups chopped Kentucky Legend Quarter Sliced Hickory Smoked Turkey

2 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill
2 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 tsp salt and pepper
DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 400˚F. Cut away top from each pepper. Scoop out seeds; discard tops and seeds. Set peppers aside. Spoon tomato sauce into greased 11- x 7-inch baking dish; set aside.
