New Stufed Peppers = AMAZING! (I used to hate stuffed peppers)

I made some great stuffed peppers last night.

I used red bell peppers because I like the sweeter taste, but any will work (I tried with Jalepenos too, but they got too bitter) for this.

Brown up about a pound of hamburger with some onion and set aside.

Grate a califlower (sp?) head and saute/fry it in a very small amount of the hamburger grease. Season with a fair amount of chili powder, a bit of cumin, and add half a can of suger free tomatoe sauce, half a can of rotel tomatoes (diced tomatoes and chilies), heat then combine with ground beef.

Chop the top of a pepper off, layer a little grated Pepper Jack Cheese in the bottom, then filling, then a bit more cheese, then more filling, and top it with a a little more cheese.

Bake at 375 for 20 minutes to a half hour. For me, I go until the pepper is tender, but not mushy.

The filling should be a little more drythan what one typically sees in a stuffed pepper, which helps everything stick together and not be "drowned" and mushy.

I will post pictures next time I make them. These were really good and filling. Hope someone trys them and likes them. Reheated well today for lunch too!

I love eating amazing food and loosing weight.

Hi Jeremy,

I made them these evening. Lovely recipe :

Since I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut off today I microwaved the peppers for 3 mins before continuing the recipe to save baking time.

Also, I did not have rotel but I added garam masala & garlic powder which was awesome.

I made these with cauli for me but left over last nite's rice for hubby & kids.

Awesome!! Thanks!
