Taco-Stuffed Peppers Recipe by Tasty image

Steps:

  • Cut off the top and remove the seeds from each pepper.
  • Place in a baking dish and bake for 20 minutes in a preheated oven at 350˚F (175˚C).
  • While the Peppers are roasting - heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and season with entire taco seasoning packet. Allow beef to brown on all sides, about 5-6 minutes.
  • NOTE: If you made your own taco seasoning, you'll want to add 2 tablespoons. The ingredients above will make more than this recipe requires.
  • Add diced onion - continuing to cook until softened, about 4-5 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to Medium. Mix in the black beans, brown rice, corn, and salsa. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Add in 1 cup (100g) of cheese and stir until incorporated and the cheese has melted. Remove from heat.
  • Remove peppers from oven and fill each with the taco mixture. Top with additional cheese.
  • Return to the oven for 15 minutes until the cheese has melted.
  • Top each pepper with a generous scoop of guacamole and sour cream. Top with additional cheese.
  • Enjoy!

VEGETARIAN MEXICAN INSPIRED STUFFED PEPPERS

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.

  • To roast the peppers: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the halved peppers in a large 9 by 13-inch baking dish, or on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil over the peppers and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. Use your hands to rub the oil all over both sides of the peppers, then arrange them with the cut sides facing up. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the peppers are a little blistered around the edges and easily pierced through by a fork. Set aside. Leave the oven on for baking the peppers.
  • In the meantime, cook the rice: Bring a large pot of water to boil. Rinse the rice in a fine-mesh colander until the water runs clear. Add the rice to the boiling water and continue boiling, uncovered, for 30 minutes (reduce the heat as necessary to prevent overflow). Drain off the remaining cooking water and return the rice to the pot. Set aside.
  • Prepare the filling: In a large skillet over medium heat, warm 2 tablespoons olive oil until shimmering. Add the onion and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Cook, stirring often, until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook until they’re lightly squishy, another 5 minutes or so.
  • Add the cilantro, garlic, chili powder and cumin. While stirring, cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 30 to 60 seconds.
