I like serving this with homemade mashed potatoes and a vegetable!

  • 4 small-med size green bell peppers
  • 1 pound 96% lean ground beef (can sub ground turkey to lower points, but we prefer beef.)
  • 2/3 cup rice (cooked)
  • 1 small onion
  • 2 cans stewed tomatoes
  1. Cut tops off peppers, clean out the seeds and membranes. Cook in a pot of boiling water for about 7-9 until soft. Carefully remove without ripping/breaking. Drain on paper towels, upside down and let cool enough to handle.
  2. While peppers are cooking, put meat in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Grate the onion into the bowl (use the small side of the grater so it is very fine/almost liquid). Add cooked rice and mix everything together. Divide into 4 equal portions, Stuff into pepper cups.
  3. Place pepper cups into a baking dish. Pour stewed tomatoes over the top of peppers. Cover with foil. Bake at 350 for 35 minutes. Uncover and bake 10-15 minutes more or until a meat thermometer reads 175F.
