Sounds excellent! Thanks for sharing.Through trial and error, I have come up with an amazingly filling stuffed pepper that will leave you satisfied and fulfilled.
165 calories and 15 grams of Protein!
I could barely finish one and I was full and satisfied for hours.
TOTAL: Per Serving: 165 calories, 14 carbs,6 fat,15 Protein,54 Sodium,1 Sugar! Makes 8 servings
(Ingredient total cost: $ 13.00 rounded up. Great for those on a budget. $1.62/person)
2 cups prepared brown rice (instant or otherwise)
1 lb lean ground beef
1 large tomato
1/2 cup mushroom (I use baby portabello)
4 large bell peppers of any color (I use green)
2 eggs
Preheat oven to 375 (F)
Cook rice according to package instructions, set aside. Brown 1 pound lean ground beef, seasoned to taste preference. ( I use salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder).
Drain the ground beef, and mix with the rice in a medium bowl.
Chop tomato and mushrooms and add to the rice and meat mix.
Slightly beat eggs and then mix with the stuffing mixture.
If you like a bold flavor, add more seasoning of your choice at this stage as most of the seasoning will have drained with the grease from the meat.
Cut peppers in half, lengthwise, removing the membranes and seeds, and then fill the halves with the stuffing mixture.
Place on a cookie sheet or any other baking pan and cover with foil loosely to avoid rice drying up. Check peppers at 30 minutes for tenderness of preference and adjust time accordingly.
There were 2 leftover when I made them the other night, and in the morning, I chopped the peppers, mixed with the filling, warmed it up, and then put into wraps. Was pretty great, and I really wanted to share this here.0 -
Thanks for the recipe!0

That sounds yummy. I bet you could add a little salsa to the meat mixture for more moisture if needed, and to tweak the spiciness.0

Can't wait to try this recipe! Bump0

No sauce? Gotta have sauce on my stuffed pepper! I have a similar recipe but I like to use quinoa, ground turkey, veggies, fresh garlic, lots of spices including cayenne to make it spicy. Why do you add the egg? There is really no need for it unless you are trying to boost the protein?0

Could also use ground turkey breast or ground chicken breast...0
