This is the perfect dish for company. Everyone gets and individual pepper that is a complete dinner within itself. Each pepper is stuffed with left over rice or whatever grain you prefer. ground beef is the perfect filler with peas carrots and corn, onions, mushrooms etc.
I try to find beautiful tri- color peppers (Large) with nice strong stems. I rinse them well and cut the tops off making sure that they are strong enough to stay on the pepper after stuffing. I remove the seeds and take small knife and clean out the white membrane, then rinse the pepper again removing any seeds that may still be there.
In a large bowl mix all of the ingredients you want in your pepper it can be any left over you have or use fresh items such as corn, peas, carrots, with your rice and ground beef, get creative and colorful. Fill the peppers and place in a backing dish with a little tomato sauce in the bottom of the pan. Place the beautiful tops on the stuffed peppers at this point. Cook at 350 degrees until peppers are soften about 45 minutes then pour remaining tomato sauce and let simmer for another 10 minutes or so.
I guarantee your guest will love the presentation and their individual colorful paper.
