Pepper Stew

Stuffed peppers with tomato sauce

Ingredients

  • 4-5 bell peppers
  • 1-2 pounds ground beef
  • 1 large sweet onion
  • 1 egg
  • 3 14 oz cans tomatoes, crushed or diced
  • 2 boxes beef broth
  • 1 can tomato sauce
  • 1-2 cans water
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions 

  • Slice tops off the peppers, seed and wash. Remove stems from tops and discard stems. 
    Combine beef, onion, egg and rice. Stuff peppers with  mixture and replace tops, securing with toothpicks. (Any leftover beef mixture can be made into meatballs.)
