I really love peppers. Sweet or Hot, they are my favorite fruits. Fruits? Yes, peppers are fruits. Unfortunately, my family does not share my affinity for the spicier varieties, but this recipe is one the whole family enjoys! Peppers are full of vitamins and photochemicals: Lutein, Beta-Carotene, and Lycopene. These nutrients have been linked to weight loss, pain reduction and cancer prevention.
Ingredients
1 pound of all-natural ground beef (90% lean)
1/2 cup of uncooked brown rice
6 bell peppers
1 can of Trader Joe's Fire Roasted Diced Tomatoes
4 oz of goat cheese
Worcestershire sauce
Garlic Powder
Onion Powder
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Cook the rice per the directions. (Trader Joe's Quick Brown Rice)
3. Brown the ground beef.
4. Remove the tops of the peppers and seeds. Rinse and place in a baking dish.
5. In a bowl, mix the browned beef, rice, diced tomatoes, goat cheese & season to taste.
6. Fill each pepper with the mixture.
7. Cover and bake in the oven for one hour.
I hope you enjoy this great, healthy meal with your family! A special thanks to Rachel Carter for her inspiration and ideas!
