Ingredients
4 servings
- •4 large green bell peppers, tops and seeds removed
- •½ pound ground beef
- •½ pound Italian sausage
- •1 small onion, chopped
- •½ cup spaghetti sauce with mushrooms
- •1 cup grated mozzarella cheese, divided
- •½ cup ricotta cheese
- •½ cup cooked white rice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-high to maintain a rolling simmer. Cook peppers until starting to get soft, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef, sausage, and onion. Cook and stir, breaking up the beef, until onion is soft and meat has lost all its pink color, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl with a slotted spoon.
- Mix spaghetti sauce, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, ricotta cheese, and cooked rice into the beef mixture. Divide among 4 bell peppers and transfer peppers to a baking dish. Sprinkle remaining mozzarella cheese on top of the peppers.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cheese melts and begins to brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
