| Eat A Rainbow for Good Health ~ The Start of Great Recipe! |
So my mom and I have chosen our next recipe to share with you and I am so excited, because Stuffed Peppers is one of my all time favorites.
It’s super easy and can be prepared beforehand and popped in the oven later in the day. It is also makes a very yummy leftover, especially if you put the inside mixture on a hero roll, add the chopped peppers and a bit of tomato sauce- a hot hero sandwich! Yum!

Here is my mom’s recipe. We hope you enjoy it!
Ingredients:
1.5 lbs very lean ground beef
1 cup white rice
Onion powder (a quick shake to taste)
Salt and pepper
1-2 tablespoons tomato paste
Directions:
In a large skillet cook beef. I usually add a bit of olive oil or Pam spray to the pan. Cook meat until done, stirring often so it does not burn.
When both meat and rice are done, combine them. Add onion powder, salt and pepper to taste. Stir in tomato paste and mix well.
Wash peppers and cut tops off (save them!), scrape out inside. Fill each pepper with the beef/ rice mixture until full. Place them in a baking dish with sides to lean on, so they do not fall over.
Place tops back on pepper and bake for 30-45 minutes (depending on pepper size and your oven). I usually cover them with foil for the first 25 minutes, then remove foil for the remaining time.

Yum! I always make mine with marinara sauce to top :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up at One Organic Mama! Hope to see you back on Thursday morning!
Thanks much! Can't wait! :)
DeleteLooks yummy. I'm like One organic mama I use my left over marinara sauce on mine. But, if I'm not making sauce this would be a great alternative. Thanks for sharing how. Theresa @DearCreatives
ReplyDeleteGreat tip about the leftover sauce, I'll have to remember that one! Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!
DeleteI just found your site about an hour ago, I just love it all and want to see every thing you have on here. I make my stuffed peppers almost identical to your mothers recipe except instead of putting the cut off tops back on the peppers I trim around the stem and chop the piece into little chunks and freeze in a baggie to be added later to a dish as an added ingredient, and just before peppers are done I put a slice of american cheese on each one to melt.
ReplyDeleteHello Sandra! You just made my day, thank you for the sweet comment. Also, thanks for the cheesy suggestion!! We LOVE cheese and I also love making my own stuffing, but I usually buy frozen peppers to do that. Now I don't have to...what a great idea. Thanks so much for sharing that and I really do hope that I'll see you in the comments more often!!
DeleteI forgot to leave my name about melting cheese on top
ReplyDeleteThank you for coming back to leave your name, Sandra!! So much better when I can thank you for your comments by name!! ❤️
