Ingredients

  • 6 green peppers, tops and seeds removed

  • 1 pound ground beef

  • 1 ½ cups cooked rice

  • cup chopped celery

  • 1 tablespoon grated onion

  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce, divided

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Cook green bell peppers in the boiling water until soft, 5 to 8 minutes; drain.

  3. Cook ground beef in large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking into small pieces with a spatula as it cooks, until completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain and discard excess grease. Transfer beef to a large bowl.

  4. Stir rice, celery, onion, and about half the tomato sauce with the ground beef; season with salt and pepper. Stuff cooked green peppers with the ground beef mixture.

  5. Arrange stuffed peppers in a baking dish. Pour enough water into the baking dish to about 1-inch deep. Pour remainder of tomato sauce over the peppers.

  6. Bake in preheated oven until heated through, about 30 minutes.
