Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C).

Cut the tops off of the bell peppers, then scrape out the seeds and white pith. Save the pepper tops and set them aside.
3
In a medium mixing bowl, combine all the remaining ingredients, season with salt and pepper, and stir together so that everything is thoroughly mixed.
4
Divide the beef mixture in half and stuff it into the peppers, then place the tops of the peppers back on top.
5
Transfer the peppers to a baking sheet or oven-safe skillet, then bake in the preheated oven until the meat is cooked through and the peppers are soft and starting to shrivel, 40 to 45 minutes.

Cool for 5 minutes, then serve.
