Mom's Best Stuffed Green Bell Peppers image

Another Slovak favorite, this is one of my Mom's great recipes. Again, uses condensed tomato soup (see my Velveeta Mac and Cheese for another way tomato soup compliments a recipe). So good, it rivals Stouffer's frozen in the store. Compare them for yourself!

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h50m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 medium green peppers
1 lb ground beef, uncooked
1 cup cooked rice (Minute Rice works well)
1 (10 ounce) can condensed tomato soup
3/4 cup water
2 eggs
1 teaspoon sugar
2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons diced onions
2 teaspoons seasoning salt

Steps:

  • Slice tops horizontally off of 4 large or 5 medium-sized green peppers. Cut out the seeds and membrane from inside each pepper and rinse with water. Arrange in baking dish.
  • Prepare 1 cup of rice per package instructions. When done, allow rice to cool slightly (the cooler the rice, the easier to handle).
  • In mixing bowl, break up raw ground beef. Add garlic, onion, and seasoned salt. Crack 2 eggs into mixture. Add the cooled rice and mix all together using hands in a mixing bowl (as if you were making a meatloaf or burger patties).
  • Once mixture is combined, fill each green pepper to the top (Note: If there is any mixture left over, you can shape into meatballs for a pasta dinner).
  • In a small bowl, empty contents of tomato soup can. Add 3/4 cup of water. Add 1 teaspoon of sugar to cut the acidity of the tomato soup. Stir to combine, then pour over green peppers in baking dish.
  • Place baking dish in oven, uncovered, for 70 to 90 minutes at 350 degrees. Check beef mixture in peppers near the end of cooking time to make sure beef is cooked thoroughly.
  • Remove from oven. Spoon tomato mixture over top of green peppers and serve.

Overall, this was a good recipe. I would make it again, but I would make a few changes.

The recipe was easy to follow, but the peppers took longer to cook than the recipe said. I had to put them back in the oven for an extra 15 minutes.

The peppers were a little bland. I think I'll add some extra seasoning next time.

The peppers were a little too spicy for my taste, but the filling was delicious. Next time, I'll use a milder pepper.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover rice, ground beef, and vegetables. It's also a great make-ahead meal.

I added some extra vegetables to the filling, like chopped carrots and celery. It made the peppers even more hearty and nutritious.

I'm not usually a fan of stuffed peppers, but this recipe was a game-changer. The combination of the sweet peppers, savory filling, and tangy sauce was perfect.

This was a great way to use up some leftover rice and ground beef. The peppers were a nice vessel for the filling, and the sauce added a lot of flavor.

My family loved this recipe! The peppers were tender and flavorful, and the filling was perfectly seasoned. I will definitely be making this again.
