Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup uncooked white rice
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 tablespoon chili powder
4 green bell peppers
16 slices Swiss cheese
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • In a saucepan bring 2 cups water to a boil. Add rice and stir. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.

The peppers were a bit too spicy for me, but the filling was delicious. I think I would have liked them better if I had used a milder pepper.

These stuffed peppers were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had added some more spices to the filling.
