Taste of Mexican Stuffed Peppers!
When craving Mexican food, Mexican Stuffed Peppers are a favorite at my house. My family loves these stuffed peppers and I am happy to serve this meal because of all the nutritional benefits found in the peppers, corn and black beans. These stuffed peppers are good enough for company and to make it even more festive, serve with a classic margharita.
Mexican Stuffed Peppers
Serves 4
INGREDIENTS
1/4 cup uncooked white rice
4-5 red peppers, top removed and seeded
1 pound lean ground beef
1/2 cup green onion, diced
1(14 1/2 ounce) can tomato sauce with jalapenos
1/2 cup frozen corn, defrosted
1/2 cup black beans
1 tablespoon Worchester sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon ancho chili powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (chopped)
1 cup salsa
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
DIRECTIONS
Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
Boil the rice and cook as per package directions.
Brown the ground beef over medium heat. Drain the fat and add the green onion and cook another 3-4 minutes. Add Worchester sauce, salt, garlic powder, oregano, cumin, chili pepper, black pepper and cilantro. Stir the seasonings well in to the meat mixture. Add the tomato sauce, corn, black beans and rice. Mix well. Taste for salt and pepper and add per your taste.
Place green peppers on baking sheet and stuff each pepper with the beef mixture. Top each pepper with salsa and then cheese.
Bake the peppers covered with foil for 45 minutes. (keep the foil from touching the cheese or it will pull the cheese right off.) Bake the pepper uncovered for approximately 15 minutes or until peppers are soft.
