Green peppers are perfect - large and crispy - this time of year.
Here's a recipe to try, yummy 'stuffed Green Peppers':
- 6 large green peppers

- 1/4 tsp of garlic powder and onion powder (or fresh garlic, onions)
- 1 tsp of italian season (or fresh oregano, basil, rosemary, parsley, chives)

1) Preheat oven 350 degrees F or 175 degrees C
2) Cook rice or orzo; cook ground beef
3) In larger pan, mix the rice, ground beef, spices, worchestershire sauce and tomato sauce
4) Prepare the green peppers, take the tops off and flatten bottom so they stand up on a cookie sheet

  1. Tried this recipe a second time. Filled the pepper 1/2 way, then added shredded cheese, then filled the pepper to the top. Yummy addition! Great recipe.
