Santa Fe Stuffed Peppers


Summer time is vegetable garden season around here. I get a ton of tomatoes, peppers, onions, and potatoes from my mother in law. I had a few extra things laying around that were about to go bad and 
I really wanted to make something bell peppers.


 This recipe is super hearty and filling. 
The roasted potatoes were pretty simple, I just used a package of potato topping and roasted in the oven for 30 minutes. 


Ingredients: 

4 large bell peppers,  de-seeded
½ onion, diced
1 -15 oz. can of beans
1 -1 bag frozen corn
1- 15 oz. can of diced tomatoes
10 oz. Uncle Bens brown rice/ 4 servings per package instructions
1 package Taco Seasoning

Instructions:

1- Place your peppers upright on a baking sheet. Drizzle some olive oil over them and place them in a preheated oven at 350 degrees. Let them bake for 20-25 minutes or until they are blistering.

2-While the peppers are baking, in a large skillet, sauté the diced onions in olive oil until tender.

3- In the meantime, cook brown rice according to instructions.

4- In the large skillet, combine the cooked brown rice, rinsed beans, corn, tomatoes and taco seasoning and cook for 5 minutes or until heated through.

5- Once your peppers are done baking scoop the filling inside the peppers

You will have extra filling, you can use this to make burritos on whole wheat tortillas for lunch!!


Enjoy!
