Stuffed Peppers
Everyone likes personal sized meals, right? They’re convenient, easy for meal prepping and everyone can customize to their preference…Well, this meal is no exception!
Here’s what you’ll need to create this meal:
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 diced onion
- 2 Tbsp tomato paste
- 2 cloves chopped garlic
- 4 chopped jalapeños
- 16oz mozzarella cheese
- 1 can diced tomatoes
- 1/2 cup uncooked rice
- Taco seasoning to taste
- 4-5 whole green peppers
- Cilantro to garnish
Let’s get cooking!
To start out, preheat oven to 400°F.
Cut up the onion and cook until soft, then add garlic and tomato paste and cook for 1 minute.
Add in cooked ground beef (I made mine in a Pampered Chef meat cooker and drained it of excess fat).
Add can of diced tomatoes. I used the one with oregano and basil added for more flavor.
Add rice.
Stir in jalapeños and additional seasonings desired and let it all cook while you prep your green peppers. Cut off the tops and core out all of them.
Stuff all your peppers with mixture and place in a baking dish where peppers stand up. Mine was a 7×7 and it worked perfectly.
Cover with foil and bake at 400°F for 40 mins or until peppers are soft.
Top with cilantro and enjoy!
