Owens' Peppers Rellenos - cooking recipe

Ingredients

6 large bell peppers
1 lb. Owens hot sausage
1 lb. lean ground beef
2 eggs, beaten
1 c. chunky salsa (any brand)
1 tsp. garlic powder
2 c. tortilla chips, crumbled
1 large onion, diced
1 c. Monterey Jack cheese, cubed
1 c. sharp Cheddar, grated

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375\u00b0.
Cut off the tops of each bell pepper and set aside.
Hollow out the inside of each pepper, discarding the seed and membrane.
Take care not to puncture the outside skin.
Combine in a large bowl the sausage, ground beef, eggs, salsa, garlic powder, tortilla chips, chopped onion and cubed cheese.
Mix everything together well.
Next, using a tablespoon, press the meat mixture into the bell peppers, not over-filling. Now sprinkle the grated cheese over the top of the meat in each bell pepper, put the tops on each pepper and bake for 45 minutes.
