Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Prepare a 13 x 9-inch baking dish by spraying it with nonstick cooking spray.
- Heat a large skillet on medium heat. Add the ground beef and sprinkle with the salt. Cook, stirring, until the meat is browned, about 10 minutes.
- Stir in the pepper and onions and cook for another 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, and paprika.
- Add the beef stock, tomatoes, uncooked rice, and most of the cheese, reserving ½ cups of cheese for later.
- Transfer the mixture to your prepared casserole pan and cover it with aluminum foil.
- Put it in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes.
- Take the foil off and sprinkle the ½ cup of cheese on top. Turn the oven to broil and broil for 2-3 minutes to melt the cheese.
Notes
- If you're looking to cut down on the fat, you can opt for ground turkey or ground chicken instead of beef. Or use Italian sausage for a different flavor.
- Get a little cheesy and mix in some mozzarella cheese or pepper jack for an extra flavor kick in your stuffed pepper casserole.
- Try brown rice or even quinoa can be great substitutes if you're looking for a twist or a healthier option. You will have to adjust the cooking times.
