VEGETARIAN MEXICAN INSPIRED STUFFED PEPPERS

I created this so it's not too spicy, but is packed with flavor. My kids loved it! For variety, add corn or other vegetables or switch to other chopped tomato varieties (chiles, jalapenos, etc.). Follow the boiling method prior to baking if you don't want a crispy bell pepper. If you have small peppers, use more of them for this recipe. They taste great with a dollop of sour cream on top.

MEXICAN STUFFED BELL PEPPERS

These mild flavored peppers have a filling that is sweet and somewhat reminiscent of the sweet tamales we get during the holidays. Cook and prep time do Not include time need to make the corn bread as I quite often make it either the night before. If in a time crunch you could always buy a pre-made 9x9 corn bread.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Place the ground beef into a skillet over medium heat, and brown the meat, breaking it apart into crumbles as it cooks, about 8 minutes. Drain excess fat. Stir in the taco seasoning, water, chili powder, cooked rice, salt, garlic salt, black pepper, and 1 can of tomato sauce; mix until thoroughly combined. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cut the bell peppers in half lengthwise, and remove stems, membranes, cores, and seeds. Place a steamer insert into a large saucepan, and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Cover, and bring the water to a boil over high heat. Place the peppers into the steamer insert, cover the pan, and steam until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Place the steamed peppers into the prepared baking dish, and fill lightly with the meat filling. Press 1 cube of Colby-Jack cheese into the center of the filling in each pepper, and spoon the remaining can of tomato sauce over the peppers. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the peppers are tender and the filling is hot, 25 to 30 minutes.

Mexican Quinoa Stuffed Bell Peppers image

Steps:

  • Cook bell peppers in boiling water for 3-4 minutes to soften a little. (I did this because I was short on time and wanted to decrease baking time. You can of course, skip this and just stuff the raw peppers, then bake.).
  • Cook Quinoa in chicken broth, NOT water!
  • In a saucepan, sautee onions, garlic and chopped bell pepper tops.
  • Add rest of ingredients and cook until warmed through.
  • Fluff quinoa when it's done and add to saucepan with everything else.
  • Stuff peppers with the mix.
  • Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes depending on the size of your peppers and how much they cooked when they were pre-boiled. They should take no more than 15 minutes for smaller peppers. If you stuffed the peppers raw, they will need to bake for 30-40 minutes. Put a few tablespoons of water in the bottom of the dish too.).
  • NOTE: I wanted to add olives, but had none, so those would be good too. Some cheddar cheese would be great too.
