I put these together for a work potluck years ago and they requested them often. I now make it for my family and extended family. It is always popular.

How To Make stuffed peppers

    Brown the meat, but don't overcook. Drain. mix together in a bowl with the rice, 2/3 of the parmesan cheese, 2/3 of the mozzerella cheese and the pasta or marinara sauce.
  • 2
    Core and clean the bell peppers. Rinse well, and pat dry. Cut a small amount of each pepper off on the bottom to allow them to stand upright without falling over. Place each pepper upright in a baking pan, sprayed with vegetable spray.
