Lasagna Stuffed Peppers Recipe By Tasty

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Cook sausage and onions in large nonstick skillet on medium heat until sausage is done, stirring frequently. Remove from heat. Stir in 1 cup pasta sauce.
• Mix egg and ricotta in medium bowl until blended. Add Parmesan and 1 cup mozzarella; mix well.
• Combine remaining pasta sauce and water in 13x9-inch baking dish sprayed with cooking spray. Place pepper halves, cut sides up, in prepared dish; fill with alternating layers of sausage and cheese mixtures. Cover.
• Bake 30 min. Top with remaining mozzarella; bake, uncovered, 10 min. or until melted.
• Sprinkle with basil.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Cut each noodle into 4 equal pieces.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil; place bell pepper halves on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until peppers soften, about 20 minutes.
• While peppers bake, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook sausage and onion until browned, about 8 minutes. Add tomato sauce, garlic, and oregano and bring to a simmer. Simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes more.
• Remove peppers from oven and pour off any excess liquid. Leave oven on.
• Whisk ricotta cheese, egg, Parmesan cheese, and basil together in a small mixing bowl. Layer each bell pepper half with 2 tablespoons sausage mixture, 1 noodle piece, and 1 tablespoon ricotta mixture. Repeat layers and sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top of each pepper. Place stuffed peppers on the baking sheet.
• Bake stuffed peppers in the preheated oven until cheese is browned and bubbly, about 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-high to maintain a rolling simmer. Cook peppers until starting to get soft, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef, sausage, and onion. Cook and stir, breaking up the beef, until onion is soft and meat has lost all its pink color, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl with a slotted spoon.
• Mix spaghetti sauce, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, ricotta cheese, and cooked rice into the beef mixture. Divide among 4 bell peppers and transfer peppers to a baking dish. Sprinkle remaining mozzarella cheese on top of the peppers.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese melts and begins to brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
