Stuffed green peppers have always been a family favorite in my house. It is a very frugal dinner, too!
Ingredients:
- 2 jumbo green peppers, cut in half
- 1 1/2 lb lean ground beef
- 1 small onion, chopped fine
- 1 stalk celery, chopped fine
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped fine
- a few slices of green pepper chopped fine
- 1 box Zaterain's Red Beans and Rice, follow directions on the box
- 2 cans Italian seasoned diced tomatoes (1 for the rice and 1 for topping the peppers)
- grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Steps:
- Using a large skillet, break up up the beef with a spatula. Add all the chopped veggies, the tomatoes, and bring to a boil. Follow the package directions for red beans and rice. Let this all simmer until it thickens.
- Par boil the green pepper halves. Ladle some of the sauce from the pan and put it in the casserole dish.
- Lay the pepper halves in a covered casserole dish.
- Fill and stuff the pepper halves. Over fill these.
- Using a the extra diced tomatoes, pour them on top of each pepper.
- Cover and put in a 350 degree F oven for 30 minutes, or until you see them bubbling hot.
- Top with grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
