Reduced-fat cheese lowers calories without sacrificing taste.

Start by cooking 1 pound of ground turkey in a skillet.

Add rub seasoning and garlic to the turkey while cooking.

Cook the turkey for about 1 minute until done, noting that it cooks quickly and is lean.

Add 2 cups of cold cooked rice to the turkey in the skillet.

Pour in chicken broth to keep the rice moist and prevent it from becoming fried rice.

Season the mixture one last time with the rub seasoning.

Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes, being careful to keep the stems intact.

Pack the rice mixture tightly into the bell peppers, ensuring they are full.

Preheat the grill and place the stuffed bell peppers on it to warm them up for a few minutes.

After warming, add feta cheese on top of the stuffed peppers as a decoration before serving.
