Stuffed Bell Peppers

I pretty much love anything that's stuffed. Mushrooms stuffed with sausage and cheese, prawns stuffed with crab and cheese, chicken stuffed with bacon, spinach and, well, cheese! And also, stuffed bell peppers. Plus, when I eat these I feel healthy, unlike the other stuffed foods that occasionally find their way into my mouth!

Serves 4

INGREDIENTS:
1 lb. ground meat ( I use turkey)
4. large bell peppers (any color)
1 cup of cooked rice
1 can of diced tomatoes, undrained
1 cup of shredded cheese
4 tbsp BBQ sauce
2 tbsp minced garlic
1/2 cup of onion, diced
Seasonings (I used S & P, garlic powder, and a little chili powder)

DIRECTIONS:
1. Remove cores and seeds from peppers. Place in large pot and boil in water for about 4 minutes. Preheat oven to 350*
2. Meanwhile, brown the meat with the onion. Add garlic during last 2 minutes of cooking.
3. Remove peppers from water and place in a casserole dish.
4. Mix meat, tomatoes, rice, cheese, BBQ sauce and seasonings in bowl.
5. Scoop mixture into peppers until they are all full.
6. Bake for 30 minutes. Sprinkle additional cheese on top if desired : )
