Stuffed Bell Peppers
Bell peppers are stuffed with a ground beef mixture that has rice, cheese, and vegetables to make a complete meal for the whole family.
Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 6 whole bell peppers any color or a mixture of colors
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1 small onion diced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 (15 oz) can diced tomatoes drained
- 1 cup cooked white rice
- 1 cup frozen corn
- 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 1/2 cups shredded pepper jack cheese divided
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and lightly grease a baking dish large enough to hold your bell peppers.
- Trim the tops of the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membrane from the inside. Place the peppers in the baking dish.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef and onion until browned. Drain any excess liquids, add the garlic, and cook one minute longer.
- Remove from heat and stir in the diced tomatoes, cooked rice, corn, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and 1 cup of the shredded cheese.
- Spoon the meat filling evenly into each bell pepper. You may have some leftover filling depending on how large your peppers are. If you do, you can either heat it up to eat by itself later or make extra stuffed peppers with it.
- Sprinkle remaining cheese on top of each pepper and bake for 30 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and started to brown.
