Stuffed Peppers
Stuffed peppers are a fancy way to serve peppers and you can eat the bowl it all comes in! Instead of cheese, as in most traditional stuffed pepper recipes, we use Melba Toast and egg.
Ingredients
- 2 – 4 green, red, or yellow bell peppers, halved
- 1 lb ground beef or turkey
- 1 large yellow onion, diced
- 1 pack Melba Toast, crushed
- 1 egg
- 2-4 tblsp (low sugar) tomato sauce
- 1/2 tsp oregano
- 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
Preparation
- In a bowl, mix ground beef or turkey, diced onion, crushed Melba toast, egg, and oregano.
- Remove seeds from halved bell peppers, rinse and dry
- Stuff bell pepper halves with meat mixture and top with tomato sauce.
- Bake for 90 minutes at 350 degrees.
How much tomato sauce?
I usually top each pepper with about 1 tablespoon of sauce. You could use more or less to your liking.
