BEST EVER EASY STUFFED PEPPERS (5 INGREDIENTS)

Steps:

• 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 sausage for 5-6 minutes, breaking apart with a spatula or spoon as it cooks, until well browned. Use a slotted spoon to transfer sausage 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 and 1/2 cup of the cheese into the pan. Spoon mixture into the baked peppers and top with remaining cheese.
• Bake for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted. Top with green onions or cilantro if desired and serve.

CHEESY STUFFED PEPPER RINGS

Steps:

• Potato Filling -- In a large saute pan, add the oil and butter and bring to medium heat. Add in the garlic, onion and cook for 2 minutes. Then add the potatoes, salt, pepper, parsley, and cayenne and cook until slightly brown on medium high heat but not over done. You still want them undercooked a bit, but soft and tender Approximately 7-10 minutes. When done, remove from the heat into a large bowl, let cool slightly and add the egg, cheese and scallions and mix well.
• Peppers -- As the potatoes are cooking prepare the peppers. Cut the very top and bottom off of the pepper and then cut in 3 - 1" (approximate size) rings. Remove the ribs and seeds. This should make 3-4 - 1" rings per pepper.
• Bake -- On a cookie sheet lined with foil or parchment paper sprayed with non-stick spray or Pam, set the rings down and then fill with the potato mixture and be sure to press down and fill completely. Cook 30 minutes in a 350 degree oven until golden brown and the peppers are soft and tender.
• Serve -- Pretty and easy. ENJOY!
