Stuffed peppers are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer or a main course. Whether you’re a meat lover or prefer a vegetarian option, you can easily customize the filling to suit your taste. In this guide, we will take you through the steps to create the perfect stuffed peppers with a mouthwatering filling.

Ingredients

  • 4 large bell peppers (any color)
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1 pound ground beef (or any meat/veggie substitute)
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup grated cheese (cheddar or mozzarella works great)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Step 1: Prepare the Peppers

Start by preheating your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Wash the peppers and slice off the tops. Remove the seeds and white membrane from the inside. Arrange the peppers in a baking dish and set them aside.

Step 2: Cook the Filling

In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. If you’re using a vegetarian substitute, follow the package instructions for cooking. Add the diced onions and tomatoes to the skillet and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Season with garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir in the cooked rice and half of the grated cheese. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.

Step 3: Stuff the Peppers

Spoon the filling mixture into the hollowed peppers, pressing it down gently to ensure it’s tightly packed. Place the pepper tops back on if desired. Sprinkle the remaining grated cheese over the tops of the stuffed peppers.

Step 4: Bake and Serve

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese has melted. Serve hot and enjoy your perfectly stuffed peppers!

Whether you’re hosting a dinner party or simply looking for a wholesome meal, stuffed peppers are a great option. Don’t hesitate to experiment with different fillings and spices to create your unique twist on this classic dish. Serve it with a side salad or as a standalone delight, and you’ll surely impress your family and friends!
