Steps

20 mins

1

Preheat oven to 375º F.
2

Wash peppers. Carefully remove tops from peppers, extending around a half inch to inch beyond pepper top. Remove cap and insides of pepper. Rinse and set aside.
3

Place a nonstick pan on stovetop at medium high heat. Brown your ground beef until no longer pink. Drain grease, splash with water and return to heat. Add all dry seasonings now and stir until combined.
4

Place seasoned beef in glass bowl and place portion of italian sausage in pan to cook. Continue cooking until well cooked.
5

Prepare your rice according to instructions.
6

Once sausage is cooked and rice is finished, place both in glass bowl with beef. Use as much or as little rice as you'd like and add tomato sauce and additional seasonings to taste. Stir well.
7

Line a square Pyrex dish with aluminum foil.
8

Begin to layer your peppers: 1st layer- cheese. 2nd layer- meat and rice mixture. 3rd layer- cheese. Continue layering and packing the peppers until completely filled. Do not place cheese on top.
9

Prop peppers in glass dish (I used leftover rice to create a bed) and place in preheated oven for 45-55 minutes. Sprinkle tops with additional cheese 5 minutes before removing from oven.
