We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Carefully cut the tops off the peppers and reserve to make little hat covers for when they go in the oven. Remove the seeds and white membranes and wash peppers.

  • Step 2: To make meat mixture combine in a large bowl the beef, celery, onion, rice, egg and cheese. Mix well. Then add in half and half, parsley, tomato sauce, and spices. Mix everything well.

  • Step 3: Place peppers in a casserole dish. Trim off the bottom points slightly to make flat if it doesn't stand up on it's own. Fit the peppers snugly in the dish. Fill the peppers with the meat mixture evenly. They will settle with cooking time. Sprinkle with the 1/2 cup grated cheese and cover the peppers with their little hats.

  • Step 4: Put in a preheated oven of 400 for 30-35 minutes. Serve right away. Delicious with some garlic mashed potatoes. Enjoy
