Stuffed Peppers

We love stuffed peppers. Always have. In fact, this was the very first meal I ever made as a new wife. Steve was a great sport and ate them, ever though I forgot to cover them, and they were still hard and crunchy. : ) I know there are many different ways to cook stuffed peppers, but because I have a thing about raw meat...ugh...I like to brown mine first. : )




Stuffed Peppers
Ingredients:
  1. Bell Peppers
  2. 1 pound ground beef or turkey, browned with garlic salt and drained
  3. 2 cups of rice, cooked (I use Jasmine Rice.)
  4. Tomato Sauce
  5. Mozzarella cheese, shredded
Directions:
  1. Slice top off of peppers. Rinse and clean out well.
  2. Mix browned meat and rice together.
  3. Stuff peppers with meat mixture.
  4. Pour sauce over, cover and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
  5. Uncover and sprinkle with cheese. Bake until melted.
  6. Serve with mashed potatoes and applesauce.
These can be made up early in the day and refrigerated until ready to bake. : )

  11. I made some the other day in the slow cooker. My husband can't handle tomato sauce too often, so I used the red mild enchilada sauce and it gave it a lot of flavor. I also used uncooked lean ground beef, mixed it with regular rice, and leftover pieces of the bell peppers.

    I've never seen Jasmine rice at the grocery store. Does it taste different?
