2 1/2 lb ground beef chuck
1 large red bell pepper, chopped
1 large vidalia onion, chopped
3 medium jalapeno peppers, chopped
6 clove garlic, chopped
2 pkg dry ranch dressing mix, (i used a aldi's brand)
3/4 c coconut flour
1 c fancy shredded parmesan cheese
1 c grated parmesan cheese
3/4 c mozzarella cheese
1 can(s) petite diced tomatoes, well drained
3 large eggs , room temperature
3/4 c evaporated milk

2-4 slice thick sliced bacon, cut in half, i only had 2 slices
1 jar(s) ragu traditional spaghetti sauce 24 oz, or sauce of your choice
6 large poblano peppers, cut in half
3/4 c no sugar added catsup or bbq sauce i used my homemade version

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. These are some of the main ingredients I used.

  • 3. Using a very large bowl, add in the ground beef.

MEAT LOAF-STUFFED PEPPERS



Meat Loaf-Stuffed Peppers image

With my husband-who won't eat the same thing twice-I've had to learn to be creative with leftovers (around here, we call it "recycled food"). I put this recipe together to use up leftover meat loaf. When it's dressed up with homegrown peppers, he doesn't know he really is getting yesterday's main course! Actually, leftovers are both coming and going in this recipe-if I have any peppers left over, I use them to make my spaghetti sauce. Although we live close to Houston, there's a pasture near our house and we can hear the cows that graze there. We have two sons, 4 and 2.

POBLANO-STUFFED BACON -WRAPPED "LAZY" POPPERS



Poblano-Stuffed Bacon -Wrapped

A real taste explosion! This is a variation on a Rachel Ray recipe for jalapeno poppers. However jalapenos sound too hot to me to enjoy the rest of the flavors, so I substituted poblanos--hence the name since the larger pepper must lay on it's side! It still works great on the grill--though you might want it on a perforated pan so the bacon on the bottom doesn't get too black. The bacon doesn't always wrap around the size of the pepper, so I used toothpicks to hold in place. My family likes turkey bacon and sausage, but adjust to your taste.

Categories     Poultry

Time 1h

Yield 6-8 peppers, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon olive oil, extra virgin
1 lb turkey sausage, sweet Italian
6 -8 poblano peppers
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, room temperature
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 cup sour cream
6 -8 slices turkey bacon

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high. Brown the sausage, breaking it up with a wooden spoon--about 7 minutes. Drain on a paper towel.
  • Wash peppers. Cut a slit lengthwise on one side of each pepper, and then carve about a quarter inch of pepper out alongside this slit so your fingers can barely fit inches It's a bit tricky, but gently using the flexibility of the pepper and the narrow opening, I was able to wash out the seeds and membranes without breaking the pepper, while also providing enough room for the filling.
  • In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, Parmesan, and sour cream until well combined. Stir in the cooled sausage.
  • Using a small spoon, stuff the peppers with the cream cheese mixture. Wrap each pepper with bacon and secure with toothpick by inserting pick into both pepper and bacon to hold. If it doesn't come close to wrapping around, just drape it over the top (where filling is), and secure.
  • Preheat grill to medium. Brush grates with vegetable oil. Set peppers on grill. Cover and cook until peppers are tender and bacon is crisp--about 30 minutes.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the right peppers: Poblano peppers are the perfect choice for this recipe because they are large and have a mild flavor. You can also use Anaheim peppers or bell peppers, but adjust the cooking time accordingly.
  • Cook the peppers properly: Roasting the peppers brings out their natural sweetness and makes them tender. You can roast the peppers in the oven or on a grill.
  • Use a flavorful meatloaf mixture: The meatloaf mixture is the star of this dish, so make sure it is well-seasoned and flavorful. You can use ground beef, turkey, or pork, and add your favorite herbs and spices.
  • Don't overstuff the peppers: Overstuffing the peppers will make them difficult to cook evenly. Aim to fill each pepper about two-thirds full.
  • Cook the peppers until the meatloaf is cooked through: The meatloaf should reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. You can check the temperature with a meat thermometer.
  • Serve the peppers with your favorite toppings: You can serve the peppers with mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables. You can also top them with salsa, sour cream, or guacamole.

Conclusion:

Meatloaf stuffed poblano peppers with bacon is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a family meal. The peppers are roasted until tender and filled with a flavorful meatloaf mixture. The bacon adds a smoky flavor and crispy texture. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
