VEGETARIAN MEXICAN INSPIRED STUFFED PEPPERS | ALLRECIPES

Vegetarian Mexican Inspired Stuffed Peppers | Allrecipes image

I created this so it's not too spicy, but is packed with flavor. My kids loved it! For variety, add corn or other vegetables or switch to other chopped tomato varieties (chiles, jalapenos, etc.). Follow the boiling method prior to baking if you don't want a crispy bell pepper. If you have small peppers, use more of them for this recipe. They taste great with a dollop of sour cream on top.

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1 tablespoon salt
4 large green bell peppers - tops, seeds, and membranes removed
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ cup chopped onion
2 cups cooked rice
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Bring a large pot of water and 1 tablespoon salt to a boil; cook green bell peppers in the boiling water until slightly softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain.
