INGREDIENTS

7 oz ground beef (93% lean)

2 large bell peppers

0 cup cooked brown rice

0.25 cup tomato puree

0 tbsp olive oil

0.25 cup yellow onion

1 clove garlic

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.5 tsp dried oregano

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and white ribs from the inside.

• 2

  In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and sauté the diced yellow onion until it becomes translucent and soft, about 4-5 minutes.

• 3

  Add the minced garlic and the lean ground beef to the skillet, breaking the meat apart with a wooden spoon until it is fully browned.

• 4

  Stir in the cooked brown rice, tomato puree, sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano, mixing until the ingredients are well incorporated and fragrant.

• 5

  Stand the bell peppers upright in a small baking dish. If they are wobbly, trim a tiny bit off the bottom without creating a hole.

• 6

  Spoon the beef and rice mixture into the peppers, packing it down gently to fill them to the top.

• 7

  Pour 0.25 cup of water into the bottom of the baking dish, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and bake for 30 minutes.

• 8

  Remove the foil and continue baking for another 10 minutes until the peppers are tender and the tops are slightly golden.
