Rotel Stuffed Bell Peppers image

I grew up on my Moms stuffed bell peppers. I tried many times to recreate her recipe but never could master the mix. One day I decided just to mix up some of my favorite ingredients and this is what I came up with. Every time I make it, my family is always wanting more. I prefer to make it with the orginial Rotel cause I like...

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 large green bell peppers
2 can(s) rotel (mild or original, depends on if you like it spicy)
1 lb sausage

1 1/2 c cheddar cheese, shredded
2 Tbsp garlic salt
1 Tbsp chili powder
ROTEL STUFFED BELL PEPPERS

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cut the tops off the peppers and clean out the pulp and the seeds. Add bell peppers to the boiling water and cook for 15 minutes.
  • 2. While the peppers are parboiling, cook the cup of long grain white rice as per the directions on the package.
  • 3. Brown the sausage in a large frying pan and crumble the sausage when done. Add in the 2 cans of rotel, the garlic salt and the chili powder to the sausage and stir. Add the cooked rice to this mixture and mix all ingredients well.
  • 4. Spoon the sausage mixture into the peppers and layer the cheese. You should end up with 2 layers of mixture and 2 layers of cheese with the cheese ending on top. Cook for 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Sometimes I add dollop of sour cream to each pepper before serving.
