Capsicum Tuna Baskets

• 4 large capsicums (bell peppers)


• Large tin of Tuna in springwater (drained)


• Some very low fat grated cheese


• Paprika


• Small amount of chilli powder


• Ground black pepper


• Garlic


• 3-4 large Potatoes


• Onions


• Skim Milk or Fat Free Milk


• Can green peas (drained)

Chop the top off the capsicums so it looks like a basket.

Microwave the potatoes so they are very soft, using a little water and some low fat cooking spray.

While the potatoes are cooking grab a non-stick pan and quickly saute the onion and garlic with some low fat cooking spray. (If you're in a hurry microwave the onion and garlic in a separate microwave dish with low fat cooking spray)

Ok, now combine the cooked potato, onions and garlic, paprika, chilli powder, ground black pepper, peas, tuna and some of the grated cheese into a bowl using the skim milk to create a mashed potato type mixture.

Now scoop the potatoes into the capsicum baskets until they are full to the top. Sprinkle on a small amount of grated cheese and place the capsicum baskets on a baking tray lined with baking paper in a moderate oven for around 20 minutes.
