Doug was skeptical, but these actually turned out really well. I assembled them ahead of time and froze them, thawed them for several days, and then baked.
Beef Stuffed Peppers
2 large bell peppers, cut in half lengthwise, seeds discarded1/2 lb ground beef
1 onion, diced
1 bell pepper, diced
2 cups cooked rice
1 small can tomato paste
1 can diced tomatoes, drained
8 tablespoons honey
Place pepper halves in a greased baking dish. Cook beef in skillet, add diced onion and pepper. Cook until beef is crumbled and no longer pink and onion and pepper are tender. In a large bowl, combine cooked rice, cooked beef/pepper/onion, tomato paste, diced tomatoes, and honey. Spoon into the pepper halves and (freeze if you want) bake at 350 for 45 minutes.
Ooh the honey is interesting. Do they taste sweet?
ReplyDeleteno, not sweet... I was curious about it too... maybe it keeps the peppers from being bitter?
