Main Ingredients
- 4 bell peppers any color
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 cup cooked rice
- 1 onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 tsp oregano
- 0.5 tsp basil

Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove seeds and membranes.
- In a large skillet, cook the ground beef and onion over medium heat until the beef is browned. Drain excess fat.
- Stir in garlic, cooked rice, tomato sauce, salt, black pepper, oregano, and basil. Simmer for 5 minutes.
- Place the bell peppers in a baking dish and stuff them with the beef mixture. Top each with shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the peppers are tender and the cheese is bubbly.
Notes
For a vegetarian version, substitute the ground beef with a mix of black beans and corn.
