Amanda's Beef and Mushroom Stuffed Peppers
Ingredients
-
1 pound ground beef
-
½ cup bread crumbs
-
½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
-
3 cloves garlic, chopped
-
¾ cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
-
¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
-
1 egg, lightly beaten
-
½ small onion, finely chopped
-
6 white mushrooms, chopped
-
4 bell peppers, tops cut off and seeded
-
1 (26 ounce) can spaghetti sauce
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with aluminum foil.
-
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, Italian seasoning, garlic, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, egg, onion, and mushrooms. Stuff the mixture evenly into the prepared bell peppers and replace the tops. Arrange the stuffed peppers in the prepared baking dish.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until the meat is fully cooked. Once done, remove the peppers from the oven and discard the tops.
-
Top the stuffed peppers with the remaining 1/4 cup mozzarella and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
-
Heat the spaghetti sauce in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Once the sauce starts to steam, remove from the heat and pour it over the stuffed peppers.
