215. When I think of home and comfort food as a child, I always remember my mom's Stuffed Peppers. The house would smell so good and you couldn't wait till dinner time.
I separate the "caps" and trim the seeds away from the cap and the inside. Then mix up my sauce. Olive oil, chopped onion and 3 cloves garlic. I saute' till the onions turn translucent, then add a can of chopped or crushed tomatoes. Salt and pepper the sauce and add fresh parsley and basil chopped fine. I allow the sauce to come to a boil and then I turn it down to simmer.
My next step is to make the meat filling.
2 pounds of chopped meat, 1 small onion chopped, 2 cloves garlic crushed, salt, pepper, 2 cups rice, parsley, 1 egg and 1 teaspoon garlic salt.


I top each pepper off with their matching cap and then stand them in the simmering sauce.


Delicious!!! Enjoy!!!
