Stuffed peppers...

Tonight Devin asked me to try a new recipe. A meal that he enjoys, I haven't ever had and never attempted to make for fear of messing it up. Well that fear has been conquered!

Stuffed peppers:

Ingredients needed:

4- large green peppers
1-2 pounds - ground meat (I used 80/20)
1- handful bread crumbs
2 cups - white rice (Uncle Ben's)
1 jar - marinara/spaghetti sauce (I used Prego Marinara)
1 package - Kreaft shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup - parmesan cheese
A pinch of salt and pepper

1-9x13 baking dish

Cooking instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Remove tops, insides and seeds from peppers, place in baking dish.

In pan cook ground meat with some green pepper and bread crumbs. Once finished cooking allow to cool.

Boil rice as per the instruction on packaging. I recommend using Uncle Ben's boil in a bag rice, it worked out perfectly.

In bowl combine cooled ground meat, half package mozzarella cheese, parmesan, spaghetti/marinara sauce, salt and pepper.

Add mixture to peppers, top off with remaining mozzarella cheese.

Bake for 30 minutes and Voila!
