Description

A delicious deconstructed version of stuffed peppers. Amazing when fresh and equally as good when reheated tomorrow. Rich in taste, and best of all, easy to prepare!

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 3 cups cooked rice
• 1 red bell pepper, chopped
• 1 orange bell pepper, chopped

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Stir red bell pepper, orange bell pepper, and green bell pepper into the beef; continue to cook and stir until the beef is entirely browned, about 5 minutes more. Drain and discard grease.
3. Mix tomato sauce and brown sugar together in a bowl; pour over the beef mixture. Stir rice into the beef mixture and stir; transfer to a 9x13-inch baking dish. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over the mixture.
