Bell Pepper Casserole Recipes

MEATY STUFFED PEPPER CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat; cook and stir green bell peppers, onion, and garlic in the hot butter until vegetables are slightly soft, 2 minutes. Stir sausage and ground beef into bell pepper mixture; cook until meat is crumbly and browned, stirring often, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain grease. Season mixture with salt, black pepper, oregano, and garlic powder.
• Mix diced tomatoes, rice, tomato paste, and Worcestershire sauce into meat mixture and bring to a simmer; cook until heated through, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour mixture into a large baking dish.
• Whisk tomato soup with water in a bowl until smooth; pour soup over meat mixture. Spread Cheddar cheese over casserole.
• Bake in the preheated oven until casserole is heated through and Cheddar cheese is browned and bubbling, about 30 minutes.

BELL PEPPER CASSEROLE

• Note: I cook the chopped bell pepper right in the glass measuring cup in the microwave.
• Cook for about a minute, then stir.
• Then cook 30 second at a time until pepper looks and smells done.
• Peppers will juice as they cook, but I don't drain them.

SPICY SAUSAGE AND RICE CASSEROLE
