Instructions
- In a 3.5QT Dutch oven or saucepan, brown beef with onion and garlic until no pink remains over medium-high heat. Drain excess fat.
- Add peppers, beef broth, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, rice, Italian seasoning, and salt & pepper to taste.
- Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer and cover. Simmer 25 minutes or until rice is tender. (Add more beef broth if needed).
- Once rice is tender, top with cheese and cover with a lid until melted. Optionally, broil in the oven to brown the cheese for 2-3 minutes.
Notes
- Store leftover stuffed bell pepper casserole in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. For longer storage, freeze individual portions in zippered bags for up to two months. When you're ready to enjoy it again, just thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat!
