Lazy Stuffed Peppers
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp. olive oil
- 1 lb. extra-lean ground beef
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 3 bell peppers, seeded and chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 (14.5 oz.) can diced tomatoes
- 1 (14.5 oz.) can beef broth
- 1 (8 oz.) can tomato sauce
- 2 tsp. beef bouillon
- 2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp. Italian seasoning
- 1 cup white rice, uncooked
- 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Add olive oil to a large skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, add ground beef and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, breaking into small pieces. Stir in onion, bell peppers and garlic. Once peppers have started to soften and onions are translucent, carefully drain excess grease from skillet.
- Stir in diced tomatoes, broth, tomato sauce, bouillon, Worcestershire sauce and Italian seasoning. Bring to a boil, stirring in uncooked rice. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 25 minutes or until rice is tender.
- Remove skillet from heat, stir lightly to fluff up the rice and sprinkle with cheese. Allow the casserole to rest, covered for about 10 minutes before serving.
