ITALIAN STUFFED GREEN PEPPERS
6 Medium-size Green peppers
1 lb Ground beef
1 cup Chopped onions
16 oz Can chopped tomatoes, undrained
1/2 cup Long grain rice
1 tsp Oregano
1/2 tsp Salt
2 tbsp Dried Parsley
1/2 cup Water
8 oz Mozzarella cheese, cubed or grated
Spaghetti sauce
Preheat the oven to 350°F [180°C].
Cut a slice from top of each pepper; scoop out seeds and membrane. Parboil peppers in a small amount of boiling water for 5 minutes, invert to drain well. Stand in a greased shallow baking pan that just fits them.
Brown beef with onions, stirring often to break up beef. Spoon off all fat. Add undrained tomatoes uncooked rice, water, salt, oregano and parsley. Cover and simmer 15 minutes or until rice is tender. Add Mozzarella cheese; stir until blended. Spoon into pepper cups; top with spaghetti sauce. Cover pan with foil.
Bake for 20 minutes or until bubbly and hot.
