How to cook:

wash and cut peppers
Wash the peppers and slice the tops off, horizontally. Discard the seeds and membranes. Level the bottoms if necessary to stand up in your baking dish. Alternatively, you can prepare the peppers as pictured, by slicing the peppers in half, vertically, and discarding the seeds and membranes.
preheat oven to 350F
Place the peppers in a 13x9 baking dish (or casserole dish) with a lid (or use aluminum foil when the lid is needed). Set aside. Preheat the oven to 350F.
saute onion and garlic in oil
Add oil to a large skillet over high-medium heat. When hot, saute the onion and garlic until softened and translucent (about 3-4 minutes).
add ground beef and cook
Add the ground beef to the skillet, sprinkle with a couple pinches of salt, and cook until brown. Meanwhile, make the tomato sauce for the pepper filling (next step).
make tomato sauce
While the beef cooks, add the tomato sauce and all the seasonings to a medium bowl. Mix well to combine.
add rice and sauce to the ground beef
When the beef is cooked through (about 5-7 minutes), stir in the sauce and cooked rice to coat all the ingredients. Note, if there's a lot of fat in the skillet, drain the extra fat from the skillet before adding the tomato mixture.
stuff peppers
Evenly stuff peppers with the beef and rice mixture, packing the filling in if necessary. (If you're freezing the peppers, stop here and freeze the peppers for a future meal.)
cover and bake 30-35 minutes
Cover (with foil or the lid) and bake the peppers for 30-35 minutes, until the peppers are cooked to your desired texture, testing with a knife inserted in the side. Red and yellow peppers require about 30 minutes in the oven. Green peppers are firmer, so they will need about 35 minutes.
sprinkle with cheese and bake 5 minutes
Sprinkle cheese over the stuffed peppers and return to the oven, uncovered, for 5 minutes to melt the cheese.
serve warm
Serve warm.

Notes: Easy stuffed peppers recipe, STEP 2. While the peppers are cooking, mix two 250g pouches cooked tomato rice together with 2 tbsp pesto and a handful of chopped pitted black olives and 140g of the sliced goat's cheese. …

How to cook:

In a large skillet start browning your meat until it’s thoroughly cooked. Once it starts to cook, you can add your garlic salt and black pepper.
While your meat is cooking, you can begin prepping your bell peppers by washing them, cutting off the tops, and removing the core. Set aside.
Line your casserole dish with aluminum foil. This step is optional but it does make for easy clean up! Once covered, you can arrange your stuffed bell peppers into the dish like shown above.
Cook your rice. I used instant white rice but you can use raw rice or even brown rice for this dish. It’s entirely up to how long you want to take preparing this dish!
Once your meat is cooked, drain the fat and return to your skillet. Add in the cans of Manwich, onions and rice. Cook until heated through.
Next, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Then add in 1 cup of cheese to the mixture in the skillet.
Once the cheese has started to melt, remove the skillet from heat and spoon in the mixture into each bell pepper filling them entirely.
Bake for 30 minutes or until heated. During the last 10 minutes you can add the remaining shredded cheese to the tops.
Remove from oven and allow to sit for about 5 minutes before serving.

How to cook:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a square or round 3-quart baking dish with nonstick spray.
Slice off the tops of the peppers. Remove the seeds and membranes; discard. Dice up the tops of the peppers; set aside.
If necessary, slice a little bit off the bottom of each pepper to create a flattened base so they can sit upright without falling over (being careful not to slice into the pepper itself or the stuffing will leak out.) Transfer peppers to the prepared baking dish, making sure they're somewhat snug, but not completely crowded. Season the insides with a dash of salt and pepper.
In a large ovenproof saute pan (with a lid), warm olive oil over medium-high heat. Add in the beef, onion, and reserved diced up bell peppers. Cook, breaking up the beef with a wooden spoon, until browned and no pink remains, about 3-5 minutes. Drain off grease and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Stir in the diced tomatoes, Rotel, chicken broth, rice, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, taco seasoning, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil; stir once, then cover tightly. Reduce heat to medium-low and let cook for about 20 minutes undisturbed.
Simultaneously, transfer baking dish with the peppers to the preheated oven and roast for 20 minutes.
Uncover pan, stir 1/2 cup of the cheese into the beef mixture until melted.
Spoon mixture into the partially baked peppers and top with remaining 1/2 cup cheese.
Place stuffed peppers back into the oven for another 10 minutes until cheese has melted and peppers are tender.
Sprinkle cilantro (or parsley) and scallions over the top and serve!
