Stuffed Peppers

Hey y'all!

So tonight for dinner, I made stuffed peppers. It's a little different then what my family expected since it didn't have any meat- we do live in Texas so the family thinks that every meal should have some meat. Not tonight! I filled the peppers with rice, chopped tomatoes, different spices, mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
Turns out the family actually liked it and wants it for dinner again!  Which is always good! >)


  Here's the ingredients: 


4 bell peppers 
1Tbsp cup olive oil
2 medium zucchini, grated 
3 garlic cloves, minced

1 (28-oz.) can chopped tomatoes 
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 can of chicken broth

1/2 cup mozzarella cheese- grated 
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese-  grated

1/4 cup oregano 
1/4 cup cilantro 
2 1/2 cup rice

tortillas 

  1. Pre-heat oven to 400F. In a skillet- oil pan, add garlic, zucchini cook until soft. Add tomatoes, salt and pepper cook for about 5 minutes.
  2. Add broth, cheeses, oregano, cilantro. Cut peppers take out seeds and ribs. 
  3. Cook rice-little under done. Add to tomato mixture and cook for about 10 minutes. Place a spoonful of rice on the bottom of the dish to hold the peppers- that way they dont fall over. 
  4.  Spoon the tomato mixture into the peppers and place them into the dish. Cover with foil an bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil cook for 10 minutes. 
  5. Wrap up tortillas in foil and place in the oven the last 5 minutes. 
  6. transfer to serving dish and sprinkle cheese over the tops  
-Enjoy
