Stuffed Peppers

 

 

4 green bell peppers

1 cup ground beef

1 cup canned tomatoes

1 Tbsp. olive oil

1 Tbsp. butter

bread crumbs

salt

pepper

Cut around the stem and remove the top and seeds from the peppers. Boil the peppers for 2 mins. then drop them in cold water to cool. Combine the tomatoes and meat with enough crumbs to make a thick stuffing. Heat stuffing in a frying pan with oil and butter, seasoning to taste, until it begins to brown. Fill the peppers and put them in a pan that's just large enough to hold them upright. Pour in one cup of hot water and bake at 400* for 30 mins.
