Servings: 6 | Preparation time: 25 minutes | Cooking time: 45 minutes
Ingredients
- 6 bell peppers of any color
- 350 gr lean ground beef
- 350 gr minced pork meat
- 2 small onions chopped
- 1/2 cup of white rice
- 2 glasses of water (approx. 400 mL)
- 5 tbsp of tomato sauce
- 1/2 tsp of Cool Runnings all natural all purpose seasoning
- 2 tbsp of Cool Runnings paprika
- 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese shredded
Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
2. Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add the peppers, and boil for about 5 minutes to soften slightly. Remove and drain upside down.
3. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef, minced pork, and chopped onions until no pink remains. Drain excess fat.
4. Stir in Cool Runnings All Natural All Purpose Seasoning, Cool Runnings Paprika, and tomato sauce. Let simmer for a few minutes to combine flavours.
5. Cook the rice separately until tender, then mix it into the meat and sauce mixture.
6. Stuff each pepper with the meat and rice filling, pressing down gently to fill completely.
7. Place the stuffed peppers upright in a baking dish. Add 2 glasses of water to the base of the pan to help steam the peppers. Cover with foil and bake for 35 minutes.
8. Remove the foil, sprinkle each pepper with cheddar cheese, and return to the oven for another 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the peppers are fork-tender.
9. Serve hot and enjoy!
