Delicious stuffed bell peppers filled with ground beef, rice, and cheese, bringing family traditions back to the table.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large bell peppers
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1 lb ground beef (or turkey)
  • 1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup shredded cheese
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) to create the perfect cooking environment for our stuffed peppers.
  2. Prepare the peppers by slicing the tops off and removing the seeds.
  3. Sauté the onion and garlic in a skillet over medium heat until soft and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Cook the ground beef (or turkey) until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks.
  5. Combine the cooked rice, diced tomatoes, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper into the skillet, mixing thoroughly.
  6. Fill each bell pepper with the meat and rice mixture, packing it firmly.
  7. Top each filled pepper generously with shredded cheese.
  8. Bake the peppers covered with foil for 30 minutes to help meld the flavors and soften the peppers.
  9. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until tender and the cheese is golden.

Notes

For even cooking, ensure your peppers are uniform in size. Feel free to vary the filling with different proteins or spices.
