Stuffed Peppers
Ingredients:
- 4 large bell peppers, tops cut off and seeds removed
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 cup cooked brown rice
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 can (14 ounces) diced tomatoes, drained
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, optional
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare the rice according to package directions and set aside.
- Next, prepare the bell peppers. Cut around the top and stem and remove this “lid.” Next, remove the seeds and membranes. Lightly spray the peppers with cooking spray and place them in a baking dish.
- In a large skillet, cook the ground beef with chopped onions and minced garlic over medium-high heat until the beef is browned and the onions are softened and translucent. Drain and discard excess fat drippings (never down the sink drain!).
- Stir in the diced tomatoes, cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook over medium-low heat for an additional 5 minutes.
- Add the cooked rice to the beef mixture, and stir well to mix thoroughly.
- Spoon the filling into each bell pepper, pressing down gently on the filling until each pepper is generously stuffed.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese (if using) over the stuffed peppers. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the peppers are tender. Enjoy!
