I gave some of this soup to a neighbor who said that her husband probably wouldn't eat it as it had onions in it. She said he tried it, loved it, and asked me for the recipe. I have used instant brown rice, and it worked fine.

STUFFED GREEN PEPPER CASSEROLE



Stuffed Green Pepper Casserole image

This was a great way to use up leftover rice. I found this recipe as an alternative to stuffed peppers, but much faster. This is tasty and fast to make with ingredients you have on hand. Recipe courtesy of All You May 2013 and Whitney Coy of Lancaster, Ohio.

Provided by AmyZoe

Categories     Low Cholesterol

Time 55m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb sweet sausage (casings removed) or 1 lb hot Italian sausage (casings removed)
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 large green bell peppers, seeded and chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
29 ounces tomatoes (with juice)
45 ounces tomato sauce
30 ounces corn, drained
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (I used fresh garlic)
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 cups white rice, cooked
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. (I skipped this step and found I didn't need to worry about anything spilling anywhere by using a larger pan).
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, cook sausage, stirring to break up chunks, until browned, 4 or 5 minutes. Put in bowl and wipe out skillet.
  • Warm oil in skillet over medium heat. Add bell peppers and onion and cook, stirring, until peppers are just tender.
  • Stir in sausage, tomatoes, tomato sauce, corn, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Turn heat to high and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 10 minutes, stirring once. Add rice.
  • Pour mixture into a 9x13inch baking dish and place on baking sheet. (I found by putting the entire mixture into an 11x14" pan there was enough room, and I didn't need to dirty another dish or waste foil).
  • Bake until bubbly, about 30 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and sprinkle with cheddar.
  • Return to oven and bake until cheese melts, about 3 to 5 minutes longer.
  • Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
