Stuffed Peppers & A Favorite Rice Recipe

The whole family has said this is the BEST way to cook rice from now on! A new favorite! 😊

For this meal, we cooked up a batch of rice (our kids love this rice plain, so I always make a big batch. We’ll use it for lunches & for the stir fry we’re having later this week).

We cooked one pound of breakfast sausage & mixed up 1 part sausage, 2 parts rice to put into 6 peppers that were cut in half, with the insides scooped out.

We mixed the sausage & rice with about 1 tsp garlic powder & some salt to taste (we didn’t need that much because the rice was already seasoned), & filled the pepper halves. Then we sprinkled cheddar cheese over the tops of the peppers & baked them covered for about 50 minutes, until the peppers were cooked through.

The rice seemed very dry even though we had them covered, so next time we’ll probably mix some cheese in before we stuff the peppers.
