Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 green bell peppers
1/2 lb bologna (i got garlic bologna at the deli)
1/3 c onion, diced
2 eggs, slightly beaten
pepper, to taste
1/2 c cooked rice (i used instant---cooked)
1/4 c catsup
2 Tbsp parsley

Steps:

  • 1. Use a grinder to grind the bologna.
  • 2. Cut off the tops of the green bell pepper and remove the seeds and veins. Save the top to cover you pepper back up after it is stuffed. NOTE: You might need to trim off the bottom if the pepper will not sit upright.
  • 3. Mix together the bologna, onion, eggs, pepper, cooked rice, catsup and parsley. DO NOT ADD SALT! Bologna is salty enough and you don't want to add more.
  • 4. Fill the bell pepper with the bologna mix and cap with the pepper lid. Place in an oiled or sprayed baking dish. Bake at 350 for 1 hour, turning halfway through cooking time.
  • 5. This is mom.
