The Best Stuffed Peppers
Ingredients
1 lb ground beef
1/2 onion chopped
1 bell pepper chopped
1/2 tsp minced garlic
1 can diced tomatoes
3 cups shredded cheese (whatever kind your family likes the best)
1 cup uncooked rice
5 to 6 bell peppers
Instructions
- Cut the top off the whole green peppers. Clean all the seeds out of the inside and rinse with water.
- Put the peppers upside down to drain the water out.
- Cook rice according to package directions
- Brown ground beef.
- While browning add chopped onion, chopped bell pepper, and minced garlic.
- Cook till onion and pepper are soft.
- After beef is fully cooked, drain grease out then add diced tomatoes, cooked rice, and 2 cups shredded cheese.
- Put hollowed out peppers in a baking dish and fill with beef/rice mixture. I usually have a little filling left over so I put it in the bottom of the baking dish around the peppers.
- Cover with foil and cook 425* for 30 – 40 min until peppers are soft. (I like mine with a little bit of crunch to them so I cook them for about 30 minutes.)
- After 30 – 40 minutes uncover peppers and add remaining cup of cheese. Cook for additional 5 min or until cheese is melted.
Serve and enjoy the best stuffed peppers!!
