Cheesy Beefy Stuffed Peppers

Prep Time 5 mins
Cook Time 35 mins
Total Time 40 mins
Servings 2 peppers

Ingredients
  

  • Olive Oil spray
  • 2 Sweet Bell Peppers
  • 6 oz Ground Beef
  • 1 tspn Salt
  • 1 tspn Black Pepper
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 36 g Mozzarella cheese Low moisture/Part-skim

Instructions
 

  • Wash & cut off stem from top of bell peppers. Remove all seeds, because we don't want to eat those!
  • Place small pot on stove & set flame to medium heat.
  • Chop up garlic cloves into small pieces & mix around in pot until brown.
  • Season ground beef in bowl with salt & pepper (this is optional & for taste). BTW- I don't add any type of oil when cooking ground beef, I let the fat it releases keep it juicy for me.
  • Add ground beef to pot for about 15-20 minutes. Make sure to mix everything around so it cooks thoroughly.
  • Generously spray bell peppers with olive oil & pop on grill for 4-5 minutes on each side. If you don't have a grill handy, you can either microwave on high for 4-6 minutes or pop them in the oven for 375° for about an hour.
  • Once your meat is cooked & your peppers are ready- it's time to fill 'em up.
  • Ground beef first, then cheese & enjoy!
