Stuffed Bell Pepper Ingredients
Method
Stuffed Bell Pepper Directions
Prepare the Peppers
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Place them in a baking dish.
Cook the Filling
In a skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until soft. Add ground beef, cook until browned. Stir in cooked rice, tomato sauce, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.
Stuff the Peppers
Spoon the beef and rice mixture into each bell pepper until filled. Top with shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and the peppers are tender.
Serve
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your stuffed bell peppers!
