Stuffed Green Bell Peppers. Each green bell pepper contains ground beef, onion, tomatoes, rice and cheese, and is cooked in tomato soup. Sprinkle insides of the peppers lightly with salt. The end result is not only an awesome vehicle to have a bell pepper contain your meal, but everything about this stuffed bell pepper is pretty amazing, and amazingly hot at that (so be careful!).
Meanwhile, cut tops off of green peppers and remove seeds; set aside.

Stuffed Green Bell Peppers instructions
- Add meat to skillet. Cook on medium flame until browned. Once browned discard the oil ( that the meat released)..
- Preheat oven to 375°.

Start adding 2 tablespoons of the cooked meat at a time into each bell pepper until halfway filled.. Then Add 2 teaspoon of sour cream to each one filled. Add more meat until almost filled. Add mozarella cheese and cheddar cheese as you like. And finally dash parmesan cheese on top..
- Ready for the oven!!! Cook for 45 - 55 minutes or until tender..
That way you don't have to boil the peppers on the stovetop, dirtying an extra pot. Spoon beef mixture into each pepper and top with Monterey jack, then cover baking dish with foil. Cut the core from the inside of the peppers and strip away any seeds. Cut away a very thin slice of pepper from the bottoms so the peppers can stand upright. Arrange the peppers in the steamer, cover the pot and cook,.
