I usually stuff it with ground turkey and quinoa, but this time around a replaced the quinoa with white rice. I'm sure it would be great with ground beef or chicken along with any other grain.

That image with the lighthouse behind the black pepper is Trader Joe's Sea Salt.
Steps
After cooking your ground meat along with your chopped onion and tomato, add about two cups of cooked rice to the meat mixture. Then add the tomato paste, and about 1/2 cup of cheese and mix thoroughly.
For the bell peppers, I like to parboil them for about 4-5 minutes to get them soft before stuffing them.
Once done, I simply stuff my meat, rice, and cheese mixture into the pepper and top it off with more cheese :)
Pop them into the oven to bake for about 20 minutes and they are good to go!
Hope you enjoy :)
I've actually never had a stuffed pepper, but this looks Great! I want to try this recipe but I don't eat meat, what subsititute for chicken or beef would you suggest?
