So the other day I decided to try something that a year ago I would never have done – a stuffed bell pepper. 1) because I never stuffed anything before and 2) I never really ate whole bell peppers – just wasn’t my thing. I can’t even tell you what got me thinking to do this, I just decided to I guess…weird. It was a simple meal with limited ingredients and turned out decently. It could also be an appetizer now that I think about it. Could have probably used more cheese and salt though.
Ingredients
- Large bell peppers, halved
- 1 lb ground pork
- 2 cups cooked rice (brown/white/your choice)
- Shredded cheese of your choice (amount of choice too)
- Salt and pepper
- Paprika
Instructions
- In a large sauté pan, add a little oil and cook the ground pork
- Salt and pepper generously and continue to cook
- Add the cooked rice into the pan and continue to mix and cook (you don’t have to add all the rice, your choice)
- Add more salt and pepper as needed
- Place the bell pepper halves on a large baking sheet
- Fill the halves with the pork/rice mix to desired fill
- Top with as much cheese as you want
- Bake at 375 degrees for approximately 10-15 minutes
- Top with a dash of paprika, and then eat it, duh
