Stuffed Green Peppers

4 Green Peppers
1 lb Ground Beef
1 cup White Onion (chopped)
2 cloves Garlic (chopped)
1 can Diced Tomatoes (14.5oz)
32oz Classico Tomato Sauce (use your favorite)*
1/2 cup Rice
1/2 cup Water
1/2 tbs Worcestershire Sauce
1-1/2 cups Mozzarella Cheese (grated)

*You can also use the sauce from my Beef Meatballs recipe from Feb. 2012 just omit the diced tomatoes from this recipe - Click Here

(1.) Cut the tops off peppers, remove seeds and place in boiling water for 5 minutes. Remove and rest on a plate to cool. (2.) Brown beef in a deep, non-stick skillet and drain off fat. Add onion and garlic and cook until soft. (3.) Add in sauce, diced tomatoes, rice, water and worcestershire. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes then add in 1/2 cup of cheese and turn off heat. Allow cheese to melt. Cover the bottom of a deep oven-safe pot with a thin layer of the sauce. Stuff each pepper with the mixture and place into the pot standing up. Cover with remaining cheese and sauce. Bake at 350˚F for 30 minutes!
