Here's an easy one for those who like the stuffing in stuffed peppers but don't like the cooked pepper. I will post 2 variations on the bottom as well.
Pimp says, "This originates from my mom's stuffed bell pepper recipe, but this is much easier (plus I hate cooked bell pepper)."
What you need:
2 Green Bell Peppers
1/2 lb Ground Beef
1 to 1-1/2 cups of Rice (close to 2-1/2 cups when cooked)
Ketchup, to taste (It will be about 1/3 to 1/2 a cup.)
1. Get some hamburger, and brown it in a skillet.
2. Cook some rice. I like to use instant rice. All you do is boil water and put in the rice;let it sit for a few minutes.
3. Mix rice and hamburger together. Add ketchup.
4. Remove the top stem, and seeds from the green peppers. Stuff and Enjoy!
Variations:
A. A Classic Version: Try this with seasoned tomato sauce. Season with a tablespoon of olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, and some onions (chopped and grilled with the ground beef). For a nice little extra bit of flavor, add in some grilled mushrooms (I like the Portabellas in this).
Step 2. After you stuff the peppers, place them in an oven-safe dish and bake for 15-20 minutes at 350.
B. Make this Tex-Mex style! It's maybe my favorite way to eat stuffed peppers. Basically, season the beef as you would a taco (use a packet of taco seasoning, or mix your own with: Chili Powder, Garlic Powder, Salt and Pepper, Minced Dried Onions, Cumin, and a tad of Cayenne Powder). Also, if you have it toss in a sliced and seeded Jalapeno. Mmmmm!
Step 2. Then add in some tomato sauce (or you could use some enchilada sauce) with the meat and rice.
Step 3. Stuff the peppers, and top with some cheddar cheese.
Step 4. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes.
