Stuffed Peppers

By jmartin

This recipe is always a crowd-pleaser, presentation-wise. It can also be made with ground turkey or vegetarian burger crumbles. As a time-saver, many stores now carry prepared brown rice, which saves a lot of cleanup as well. Stuffed peppers freeze well, too, so this is a good recipe to supersize for future meals.

Ingredients

• 1 lb. ground beef, extra lean (less than 5 percent fat)
• 1 cup brown rice, cooked
• 2 cups tomato sauce
• 1 cup onion, chopped
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
• 1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
• 6 green bell peppers

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut tops off peppers, and remove seeds and membranes. Mix all ingredients (except peppers) and stuff mixture into the bell peppers. Bake for 1 hour and serve! Serves 6 (although they're pretty low cal, you could eat two easily).
