Mexican Stuffed Peppers
This nutritious yet economical summer meal makes the most of my home-grown peppers. I like to top it with sour cream and serve with tortilla chips and salsa, but it’s wonderful on its own, too. —Kimberly Coleman, Columbia, South Carolina
Ingredients
1 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes and green chiles, undrained
1 envelope (5.4 ounces) Mexican-style rice and pasta mix
1-1/2 cups water
8 medium sweet peppers
2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend, divided
Minced fresh cilantro, optional
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°. In a large skillet, cook and crumble beef over medium heat until no longer pink, 5-7 minutes; drain. Stir in tomatoes and green chiles, rice mix and water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until liquid is absorbed, 6-8 minutes.2. Cut and discard tops from peppers; remove seeds. Place peppers in a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Place 1/3 cup beef mixture in each pepper; sprinkle each with 2 tablespoons cheese. Top with remaining rice mixture. Bake, covered, 25 minutes.
