Ingredients
1 pound ground beef or ground turkey
3 cloves garlic (pushed through garlic press)
1 Tbs Italian seasoning
3 large green bell peppers, cleaned and chopped
2 14 1/2-ounce cans of petite diced tomatoes (do not drain)
3 cups cooked rice
2 cup mozzarella cheese (divided) (omit cheese for a very low fat recipe)
Directions
- Brown the meat in a large skillet
- Add garlic and Italian seasoning
- Stir in tomatoes, green peppers and cooked rice
- Spoon half of the mixture into a 9x13 casserole dish and top with half the cheese. Spoon in remaining mixture and top with remaining cheese.

I used think about making stuffed green peppers but seldom had the time. This tastes the same and is very easy to prepare.
ReplyDeleteAlec suggested adding onions. I did, and we both liked the addition a lot.
ReplyDeleteI just made something similar to this last night for dinner. What a coincidence that you just made it too! I did the stuffed pepper approach, but my mom suggested that I boil the peppers in water for a few minutes before I stuffed them. It really cut down on the baking time! I also ommitted the cheese so that it was diet friendly. I'll have to try making a casserole the next time I make it. It sounds yummy!
ReplyDeleteThis is the most DELICIOUS thing in the WORLD. Adding Texas Pete Buffalo Wing Sauce adds alot of deliciousness.
ReplyDeleteAmy, my mouth is watering.
I absolutely loved this recipe. It was a hit with most of the family.
