Stuffed Red Peppers – ingredients and method

Ingredients

  • 1 cup brown rice
  • 4 cups water
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1/4 cup chopped mushrooms, or to taste
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 (16 ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 6 red bell peppers, tops and seeds removed
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste

Method

Step 1

Bring brown rice and water to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, place a cover on the saucepan, and simmer until the rice is tender, about 40 minutes; transfer to a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 3

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Break ground beef into small pieces and place in the skillet. Add onion, mushrooms, and garlic; cook and stir until the beef is completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Mix beef mixture into brown rice.

Step 4

Stir tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and Italian seasoning into the rice mixture and season filling with salt and black pepper.

Step 5

Arrange bell peppers in a baking dish. Spoon filling into bell peppers.

Step 6

Bake in preheated oven until the peppers are tender, about 1 hour. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the stuffed peppers to serve.
