Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large bell peppers
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium, chopped onion
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup, chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Set aside.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Add ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Stir in tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, Italian seasoning, sea salt, and black pepper. Allow the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Place the bell peppers in a baking dish, cut side up, and spoon the beef mixture evenly into each pepper.
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the peppers are tender.
Sprinkle fresh parsley over the stuffed peppers before serving.
