Stuffed bell pepper recipe INGREDIENTS
• 1/2 cup uncooked white rice
• 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
• 1/8 cup minced carrots
• 1/8 cup celery
• 6 bell peppers (any color) stems and seeds removed, cut in half
lengthwise
• 1/2 pound ground beef
• 1/4 pound pancetta or lightly smoked bacon, diced
• 1 1/2 cups prepared marinara sauce
• 1/4 cup red wine
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1/3 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. In a saucepan bring water to a boil. Add rice and stir. Reduce
heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until tender and fluffy;
set aside.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
Cook and stir carrots and celery until tender. Add ground beef and

liquid, and return to heat. Add marinara sauce, wine, and red pepper
flakes, and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in cream, half of the Parmesan
cheese, and rice. Simmer 5 minutes more, or until most liquid has

Drizzle with remaining olive oil and top with remaining Parmesan cheese.
5. Bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes in the preheated oven. Serve hot.
