Super Stuffed Peppers....

SUPER STUFFED PEPPERS 

(Makes 6 peppers - depends on the size of each pepper. These are GREAT to freeze!!)

(21 DAY FIX APPROVED!!!!)

2lbs Ground Beef
Bell Peppers
Brown Rice (1 cup cooked)
6 Yellow Containers Frozen Corn
1 Medium Onion, chopped
2 15oz tins No Sugar Petite Diced Tomatoes
2 15oz tins No Sugar Tomatoe Sauce
Cheese - I used cheddar, but use your favorite
Olive Oil
Salt
Pepper

DIRECTIONS :

1. Cook the brown rice according to the instructions.
2. Heat 2 tsp Olive Oil in a large pan. Add chopped onions and cook until soft. Add ground beef, season with salt and pepper and any other seasoning you like, and cook until done.
3. While your meat is cooking, prepare your peppers. Cut off the tops and scoop out the inside - making sure to remove all the seeds by running them under some water. Place your clean peppers into an oven proof dish standing upright. Add a little bit of water to the bottom of the dish.
3. In a large bowl portion out and mix together the following :
          3 Green Containers Diced Tomatoes
          3 Green Containers Tomatoe Sauce
          6 Yellow Containers Corn
          4 Yellow Containers Rice
          3 Blue Containers Cheese - this ends up being SO dispersed that I didn't count this as a blue in the serving itself
          6 Red Containers Ground Beef and onion
          Season well with Salt and Pepper
4. Start filling up your peppers to the top
5. If you are going to serve them immediately cook them for 45 min at 350F, take them out and sprinkle a Blue of cheese on top and put back into the oven until the cheese has melted - about 5 min. If you are not serving them immediately, do not put the cheese on top. Just take them out of the oven, allow to completely cook and then put them into individual baggies into the freezer.

Once you are ready to have a delicious stuffed pepper, take the pepper out of the freezer. Allow to thaw completely, put into the oven for 350F for about 25 - 30 min, or until heated through. Take it out, sprinkle 1/2 Blue of cheese on top and back into the oven for about 5 min, until cheese has melted!

Enjoy!
