How to Make Taco Filled Bell Peppers
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown 1 lb of ground beef. Drain off any excess grease.
- Stir in 1 packet of taco seasoning, 1 (15 ounce) can of rinsed and drained kidney beans, and 1 cup of salsa.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
- While the meat simmers, halve 4 large bell peppers lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes.
- Blanch the pepper halves in boiling water for 3 minutes to slightly soften them. Drain well.
- Spoon about 1/2 cup of the meat mixture into each pepper half.
- Arrange the stuffed peppers in a baking dish.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
- Remove the foil, top each pepper with chopped tomatoes, shredded cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.
- Bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
