Preparation
Step 1
1 Cook the rice according to package directions, omitting the butter or vegetable oil. Cool 10 minutes.
2 Meanwhile, with a sharp knife, slice off the top of each bell pepper and remove the seeds. Set aside. Remove and discard stems and chop remaining pepper tops.
3 Combine the cooked rice, the ground beef, onion, chopped pepper, garlic, 1/4 cup of the vegetable juice, the Parmesan, and spices in a medium bowl. Spoon the rice mixture, dividing it evenly, into the bell peppers.
4 Place the bell peppers in a deep 3-quart sauce pan; pour the remaining 1 1/4 cups vegetable juice around the bell peppers.
5 Set pan over medium high heat. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to simmer and cover.
6 Simmer until peppers are tender and beef is cooked through, 20 - 30 minutes.
7 Place each bell pepper in a serving bowl and serve with the sauce.
