INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Lean Ground Beef (95% lean)
1 medium Bell Pepper
0.5 cup cooked Brown Rice
0.25 small Onion
0.25 cup Diced Tomatoes
1 tablespoon Tomato Paste
2 cloves Garlic
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the top off the bell pepper and carefully remove the seeds and membranes. Set the pepper aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil and add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until softened, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until it’s browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and dried oregano.
Stir in the cooked brown rice, diced tomatoes, and tomato paste. Allow the mixture to simmer for an additional 2 minutes so the flavors meld.
Spoon the beef and rice mixture into the hollowed-out bell pepper. Place the stuffed pepper in a baking dish.
Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, until the pepper is tender.
Remove the foil in the last 5 minutes of baking for a slightly roasted top if desired. Serve warm.
