Adjust amount for serving amount.
Ingredients
Seasoning
  • Corriander
  • All purpose seasoning or taco mix
  • 1/2 tsp tumeric
 
Base
  • Large whole bell peppers/capsicum (1-2 per person)
  • 2 cups rice
  • 1 can roasted/sundried/tomatoes
Protein
  • 1 cup ground beef (or enough to fill 1/3 of each capsicum)
Instructions
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Grease a large baking dish and arrange bell peppers standing up. (If they want to tip over you can always cut off the very bottom 1/8 of an inch or so to flatten them out and help them stand)
  • Transfer to preheated oven and allow to cook for 10-15 minutes until tender. (Move ahead with Step 2 while peppers are baking)
  • In a large pan over medium-high heat, cook ground beef for 5-6 minutes, breaking apart with a spatula or spoon as it cooks, until well browned. 
  • Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a platter, cover to keep warm, and set aside.
  • Add rice, water, and tomatoes to the pan, give it a good stir, and bring to a boil. Reduce to low, cover, and cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir sausage back into the pan.
  • Spoon mixture into the baked peppers and top with remaining cheese.
  • Bake for 5 minutes . Top with green onions or cilantro if desired and serve.
