Stuffed peppers

Last night I made one of my favorite family recipes – stuffed bell peppers!  The kids were playing while I was surfing pinterest and I looked at the time and realized it was almost 630.. eeeek.  I hadn’t even started dinner, damn you pinterest!  Good thing these dont take much prep or time to cook.  Here’s how to make delicious stuffed bell peppers…

Ingredients:

Large bell peppers with a flat bottom

Hamburger

Instant rice

Tomato sauce

Spices

Mix the meat, instant rice and spices together 

Stuffed into peppers, stand them up in pot.  

Pour pasta sauce over peppers and into the bottom of the pot, cover. 

Let the peppers simmer on the stove top until meat is fully cooked and the pepper is tender. 

Yup.  Its really that simple.  They take about 30 to 45 minutes to cook, but they are one of those set it and forget it type of meals.  Which is great when you have kids to watch.. or pinterest to surf.  🙂  

After dinner I finished another wreath, this one for my mom.  She said she wanted ‘fall colors’ but Hobby Lobby was out of orange.  So this is my take on fall without having orange.  Haha.  I can’t wait to make more of these bad boys.. they are so much fun.  Happy Friday all!
