Preheat oven to 350. Cube potatoes and sprinkle with 1tbsp olive oil and 1tbsp garlic salt. Place in 9x13 baking dish.
Cut off tops of peppers and tomatoes and scoop out all flesh (keep tomato "flesh") and seeds leaving just the tomato and pepper shell. Add shells on top of potatoes in baking dish.

Add ground turkey and continue cooking until browned.
Add rice and chicken broth to mixture. Let cook for 10 minutes, until some of the broth is absorbed.
Stuff the tomatoes and peppers evenly with meat mixture and put tops back on. Drizzle tops with olive oil and tomato sauce.
