Beef and Rice Stuffed Bell Peppers

"Ninety-four percent of all stuffed peppers are made because there's leftover rice around. You can adjust this recipe in lots of different places: the herbs, the meat to use, etc. Give these beautiful stuffed peppers a try!"

Ingredients

• 6 bell peppers
• 2 1/2 cups chunky tomato sauce
• 1/2 onion, very thinly sliced
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
• 1 1/2 cups cooked rice

• 1/2 cup freshly shredded Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
• 1/2 cup chunky tomato sauce, divided
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, divided

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

2. Slice the top 1/2 inch from the tops of peppers and cut out the stems from the tops. Cut the core from the inside of the peppers and strip away any seeds. Cut away a very thin slice of pepper from the bottoms so the peppers can stand upright. Poke about 4 tiny holes in the bottoms to let juices drain out.

3. Pour 2 1/2 cups tomato sauce into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Add onion, beef broth, and red pepper flakes; spread out mixture evenly over the bottom. Set prepared bell peppers upright in the dish.

4. Combine ground beef, cooked rice, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, 1/4 cup parsley, 2 tablespoons tomato sauce, garlic, salt, and black pepper in a large mixing bowl.

5. Lightly stuff peppers with meat mixture. Spread 1 tablespoon remaining tomato sauce on top of each portion of stuffing; place reserved tops onto peppers. Lay a piece of parchment paper loosely on top of peppers and cover dish tightly with foil. Lay dish on a baking sheet.

6. Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour. Peppers should be starting to soften. Remove foil and parchment paper. Continue to bake until meat filling is cooked through and the peppers are tender, 20 to 30 more minutes. Sprinkle each pepper with 1/2 teaspoon parsley and drizzle with a spoonful of pan juices.

Not much eats happening today. McDonald's for lunch(out with the kids!) not much of a photo. Looks nothing like the pictures! They did however think I was on a diet as they left half my big Mac out! I did however mangage to boil and pickle some quail eggs!

Nothing fancy just plain white vinegar. Goes nicely with blue stilton and crackers!

I love Jalapeño peppers! No one else here does though so I have to have them separately. They would be nice with the pickled eggs!

We have never made s-p's the same way twice. Always with what's laying around. But always with fresh rice. Yard birds called dibs on the left overs.
Also I cut up the lid off the peppers and saute them with onions usually.
We make em different every time. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

Breakfast for lunch...or maybe it was breakfast because it's the first thing we ate today? Leftover steak and potatoes, a few eggs with cheese in a tortilla. I slathered on the hot sauce. Too hungry for pics once it was ready

Hubby use to cook this all the time but with chorizo tons of cheese and onions

The other two beat me to it. I had not thought about using the bantam eggs for jalapeño pickled eggs. The original recipe mentioned quail eggs.
