Time 1h

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 green bell peppers
1 lb ground beef
26 ounces spaghetti sauce
29 ounces tomato sauce
1 cup water
8 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded
5 cups instant cooked rice

Steps:

  • Cut off the tops of the peppers and remove the core and seeds. Remove the stem from the tops -- dice up the tops; set aside.
  • Boil the green peppers completely submerged for about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Fry ground beef until done -- add diced green peppers and cook until the darken; then drain any grease.
  • Add tomato sauce, spaghetti sauce & water, turn stove to low and let simmer for a minimum of 20 minutes. Simmering longer won't hurt it!
  • Turn off heat and add instant white rice and stir til all rice is saturated. Cover and let sit for 5 minutes.
  • Remove lid and slowly stir in cheddar (I often add extra cheese).
  • In a pan or casserole dish stuff the pre-cooked peppers. Put extra rice stuffing in the pan next to the stuffed peppers.
  • For 1/2 the servings simply freeze the other half. If you are making this for OAMC then you freeze it at this point.
  • Bake in oven at 350°F for 20 minutes then serve! To heat frozen meal simply heat at 350°F for 20 minutes or until heated through out.
