Greek-Style Stuffed Peppers
Copyright, 2006, Ellie Krieger, All rights reserved

Ingredients
1 pound lean ground beef
1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1 medium zucchini, coarsely grated (about 2 cups)
1 small onion, minced (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup bulghur
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3 red bell peppers, halved lengthwise, cores and ribs removed
2 (14 1/2-ounce) cans low-sodium stewed tomatoes, finely chopped
1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a large bowl combine the beef, spinach, zucchini, onion, bulghur, egg, oregano, salt and a few
grinds of pepper. Mix until thoroughly combined.

Arrange the pepper halves cut side up in a 9 by 13-inch baking dish and fill each pepper half with
the meat mixture. Pour the tomatoes over the peppers and sprinkle with the feta cheese. Cover with
foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until the meat mixture is completely cooked and the
peppers are tender, about 25 minutes longer.
