Photo: Stuffed Red Peppers Recipe
Ingredients
- 4 large red bell peppers
- 3/4 pound ground chuck
- 1/2 pound ground pork
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons beef bouillon granules
- 2 teaspoons House seasoning, recipe follows
- 1 cup cooked rice
- 1/2 cup jarred cheese and salsa
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/2 cup chopped green onion tops
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 cup hot water
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Start by cutting the peppers in half lengthwise, leaving the stems intact, and halving them also. Remove the seeds and ribs inside the peppers.
Using a hot skillet, saute the ground beef, pork, onion, garlic, 1 teaspoon of bouillon granules, and house seasoning together. Saute until onions become translucent. Drain the fat off. Add the rice, cheese, sour cream, tomatoes, green onion tops, and soy sauce. Mix well and stuff the mixture into the peppers. In a small bowl, mix the hot water and the remaining bouillon granules. Pour this mixture into a shallow casserole large enough to hold all of the peppers. Place the stuffed peppers in the dish, cover with foil and bake for 25 to 35 minutes. Remove the foil and spoon the juice from bottom of the casserole over the top of the peppers. Bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes.
House Seasoning:
- 1 cup salt
- 1/4 cup black pepper
- 1/4 cup garlic powder
Mix ingredients together and store in an airtight container for up to 6 months

Pretty good and easy! I agree that the mix could use more spice though. I also wasn't sure what "jarred cheese" was so I just used shredded asiago which was wonderful. I'll definitely make this one again

Wished it was a little bit more spicy. We used only ground turkey which turned out great. It was a little creamier than we wished, so next time I think we'll omit the jarred cheese & go with a shredded cheese & add some other peppers to spice it up a bit. Overall a good, and very easy recipe.

Although I'm a vegetarian, I made this for my boyfriend and he loved it! I substituted light sour cream, shredded low fat cheddar for the jarred queso, and used lean ground beef instead of using both the ground chuck and the pork, and he loved it. I'll definitely make this again.
