  Different coloured capsicums look divine on the plate.

Yes, capsicums would be nice, especially the yellow ones.

Yum. THis looks so good. I think I will try this. Although I might do that with capsicums. I’m not a huge tomato fan.

I would substitute the turkey mince but regardless the recipe looks great – I never think to make things like this, thank you.

can you substitute the mince for different mince? I think these look delicious and would love to try with the different types of mince out there

These look and sound really delicious. I love the use of turkey mince instead of beef, pork or chicken. Turkey is so full of flavour, and seriously under-rated as a protein meal.
