UN- Stuffed Peppers

UN stuffed peppers


UN Stuffed Peppers are peppers for lazy people, or hungry people because they seem to take a lot less time than the stuffed and baked variety.  Fortunately all the deliciousness of Stuffed Peppers remains so really, unless you are a visual eater ( I think that's skinny people's secret) you wont mind one bit that your rice and  beef isn't neatly packed into your Pepper receptacles.  You also won't mind that it takes at least a half an hour less to make your UN Stuffed peppers  or that this is an easy clean up , one skillet meal  - yeah you won't mind any of it .

UN Stuffed Pepper Recipe 


If you have a favorite stuffed pepper recipe make it , if you need a stuffed pepper recipe than make mine.  Un stuffing your pepper is as easy as it sounds but if you need a little hand holding in the kitchen read on for my super secret way to UN stuff a pepper ..*wink, wink*

Stuffed Pepper Ingredients

1 lb 92/8 ground beef
2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
2 tablespoons sea salt
1/4 cup reduced sodium Worcester sauce
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 large yellow onion chopped
2 tablespoons Italian Seasoning
1 cup Cherry tomatoes
2 Yellow Peppers cleaned and sliced 1/8 inch thick
1 cup beef broth
2 heaping tablespoons flour
2 cups uncooked rice  (prepare via package directions)

UN Stuffed Pepper Instructions

  • Cook your Rice according to package instructions 
  • Over medium -High flame Take your ground beef,  1/2 the salt and the olive oil and cook your meat half way add your Worcester sauce , garlic and onion and continue cooking until meat is done. 
  • Next add Peppers, Tomatoes, Italian Seasoning , rest of salt -  mix and simmer covered 5 minutes or until tomatoes and peppers soften.  
  • Gently smash the cherry tomatoes a bit while shielding your eyes and any exposed skin from the infernal juices that may be projected at your sensitive ocular area ( been there done that ) stir and recover another few minutes until peppers are good and tender.
  • Pour broth into the pan and deglaze it . 
  • Sprinkle the flour on top and stir until it is all incorporated and the sauce thickens.

    We love cheese in out house so we served it with some Italian Blended cheese on top - totally optional ! 


Serve over Rice
