So Curt's away for the weekend and it gives me a chance to eat what I like! I ordered Chinese one night and tonight had Jodi's stuffed peppers. I've had these before but never saw them made...I thought you had to be a rocket scientist to make these things but stuffing them is actually easy to do so this is a recipe that is "doable" for me. There is one left over for Curt to try to see if it's "permissable" for dinner :)
6 medium pepers; top and seeds removed
1 lb ground beef
1/4 c chopped onions
1 can (11oz) corn; drained
1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
1 cup rice, cooked
1/4 c steak sauce
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1. Cook peppers in boiling salted water for 3-5 minutes; rinse in cold water.
2. Brown ground beef and onion; add corn, tomato sauce, rice, steak sauce, salt and pepper.
2. Brown ground beef and onion; add corn, tomato sauce, rice, steak sauce, salt and pepper.
Mix well
3. Stuff mixture into peppers; place in baking dish.
4. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes at 350 degrees until peppers are done and feeling hot.
Yum! Yum! Yum! I would give it 4 stars as well as Jodi. It's super close to a 5 for me but it tasted like steak sauce to me so you could lessen that amount if you don't like steak sauce.
With the meat we used (ground beef 80%, 20% lean) these peppers were 7 points. You could way cut it down with the right meat though!
I love stuffed peppers. Your recipe has a lot more in it than mine (I think ours are dry! Sorry mom!), so I'll try these next time...maybe minus the steak sauce though (not my favorite flavor!)
ReplyDeleteSo Tracy I just had the left over pepper and it tasted way less A1 than yesterday. I don't know if the other one was more drenched or if something happens overnight to soak up the taste. I think the A1 is what makes it "zesty" so I will keep it in for us next time but only do 1/8th a cup.
