Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large bell peppers (any color)
1 lb lean (at least 80%) ground beef
2 tablespoons chopped onion
1 cup cooked rice
1 teaspoon salt
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 can (15 oz) Muir Glen™ organic tomato sauce
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (3 oz)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F.
  • Cut thin slice from stem end of each bell pepper to remove top of pepper. Remove seeds and membranes; rinse peppers.

  • Stuff peppers with beef mixture. Stand peppers upright in ungreased 8-inch square glass baking dish. Pour remaining tomato sauce over peppers.
  • Cover tightly with foil. Bake 10 minutes. Uncover and bake about 15 minutes longer or until peppers are tender. Sprinkle with cheese.

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 medium bell peppers, preferably red, halved, seeds and ribs removed (see Cook's Note)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 pound ground beef
4 medium yellow onions, finely chopped
6 large cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
One 28-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes, lightly crushed
One 15.5-ounce can black beans, drained
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 1/4 cups cooked couscous (see Cook's Note)
3/4 cup shredded sharp yellow Cheddar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Arrange the pepper halves cut-side up on a nonstick baking sheet or regular baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle the interiors with salt and pepper and drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil. Place the baking sheet in the center of the oven and roast until the peppers are juicy and somewhat softened and tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. When the oil begins to smoke lightly, add the meat in a thin layer and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the meat browns and is cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove the meat with a slotted spoon to a medium bowl. Stir the onions, garlic, chili powder and cumin into the pot with a sprinkle of salt. Stir to blend, then cook until the flavors meld together, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the tomatoes and simmer gently over medium heat until the tomatoes fall apart and the chili starts to thicken, 12 to 15 minutes. Add the meat back to the pot along with the beans and apple cider vinegar. Remove from the heat.
  • Fill each pepper about halfway with the couscous. Divide the chili among all the peppers, layering it on top of the couscous. Top with the cheese and return the baking sheet to the oven. Bake until piping hot and the cheese is melted, 20 to 25 minutes.

THE BEST STUFFED PEPPERS



The Best Stuffed Peppers image

We've made this classic easier and faster by using the microwave to par-cook the peppers, saving you about 45 minutes of cook time! This is a great recipe to use up leftover rice. Be sure to really pile in the filling (mounding it is ok) as it will shrink as it cooks.

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 large red, orange or yellow bell peppers
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound ground beef
2 medium onions, chopped
4 cloves garlic, finely grated
2 teaspoons thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 plum tomatoes, cored and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 cup dry white wine
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
2 cups cooked rice
2 cups shredded Muenster cheese

Steps:

  • If your peppers don't sit upright on your cutting board, trim about 1/8-inch off the bottoms to even them out so they can stand without falling over. Cut the top off each pepper about 1/2-inch down. Remove and discard the stems, then finely chop the remaining flesh from the tops. Scoop out the seeds and as much of the membranes as you can. Place the peppers in a large microwave-safe bowl with 1/2 cup water. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave on high power for 12 minutes. Carefully uncover and let them sit until ready to assemble.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Spread the beef in an even layer and cook undisturbed until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Toss and continue to cook, breaking up any clumps with the back of a spoon and scraping up any browned bits from the pan until the meat is lightly browned all over, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the browned meat to a large bowl with a slotted spoon.
  • Reduce the heat to medium. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and add the reserved chopped peppers, onions, garlic, thyme, 4 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender but not browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until falling apart and much of the liquid has evaporated, about 7 minutes.
  • Stir in the tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly until brick red colored, about 1 minute. Stir in the wine and cook until the mixture is reduced, very thick and no smell of alcohol remains, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a boil. Transfer to the bowl with the beef. Stir in the rice until completely combined. (The mixture will be wet.) Season with salt and pepper.
  • Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
  • Place the peppers cut-side up in a 13-by-9-inch baking dish. Spoon the filling into the peppers, gently pressing it in with the back of a spoon. Be careful not to overstuff and split the sides of the peppers. Bake for 15 minutes. Then top with the cheese and continue baking until the filling is heated through and the cheese is browned in spots, 10 to 12 minutes.

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb ground turkey
1 c long grain rice, cooked
4 Tbsp salsa, chunky
4 Tbsp worchestershire sauce
3/4 c v8 spicy tomato juice
1 Tbsp black pepper

1 c hot pepper jack cheese
1/4 c panko crumbs
2 clove garlic
6 pappers--yellow,orange,red
1 can(s) tomatoes,okra and corn (margaret holmes brand)

Steps:

  • 1. Little olive oil in frying pan to brown the ground turkey. Pepper as desired to taste.
  • 2. Bring two cups water to a rolling boil. Put the 1 cup of long grain rice into the water, stir. Lower the temp on the stove to simmer, cover the pot and let sit 20 min until the rice is tender.
  • 3. Wash the peppers with cool water to clean and freshen up. Cut off the stem portion of the peppers. Disguard the top and clean out the seeds and pepper membrain. Line a 8x8 pan with aluminum foil. Place the peppers into the lined pan with the open end up.
  • 4. Put the cooked rice and browned turkey into a large bowl. Add the salsa, V8 spicy tomato juice, black pepper, fire roasted spicy pepper pesto, panko crumbs,worchestershire sauce and the one can of tomatoes, okra and corn to the bowl. Also add 3/4 cup of the hot pepper jack cheese.

  • 6. This will be a healthy amount of ingredients. Stuff the peppers generously mounding the tops. I will sprinkle a little Worchestershire sauce over each of the peppers centers.
  • 7. Bake 350 for 1 hour. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of Hot pepper jack cheese over the top of the peppers. Serve.
  • 8. I reserve the remainder of the ingredients in the bowl for tacos. Just add more salsa to the mix. Stuff the taco shell, warm up in the microwave and serve.
