List of Ingredients
-
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
Cooking Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan. Add the rice, stir, reduce the heat, cover, and let it simmer for 20 minutes.
-
Mix the cooked rice with black beans and chili powder. Cut the tops off the peppers, remove the ribs and seeds. Fill the peppers with 2 tablespoons of the rice and bean mixture, adding a slice of cheese on top. Repeat until all peppers are filled, finishing with a layer of cheese on top.
-
Place the stuffed peppers in the preheated oven and bake for about 45 minutes, until the peppers are tender.

While the peppers bake, heat the tomato sauce in a small saucepan over low to medium heat. Once the peppers are ready, slice them in half, top with tomato sauce, and serve.
