Homestyle Stuffed Peppers - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 green bell peppers, tops and seeds removed
    1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
    1 cup cooked white rice
    1 egg, lightly beaten
    1/4 cup finely chopped onion
    1/2 cup Italian-style bread crumbs
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon black pepper
    1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
    1 (28 ounce) can tomato sauce
    1/4 cup white vinegar
    2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Preparation
    Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
    Cook the peppers in boiling water until softened, 4 to 5 minutes.
    Remove peppers from boiling water and rinse with cold water; set peppers aside to drain.
    Mix together ground beef, cooked white rice, lightly beaten egg, finely chopped onion, Italian-style bread crumbs, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese in a large bowl until evenly mixed.
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
    Divide beef and rice mixture among peppers; stuff each pepper with beef and rice mixture.
    Place peppers open side up in a 9x13-inch baking dish or shallow roasting pan.
    Combine tomato sauce and white vinegar in a bowl.
    Pour tomato mixture over stuffed peppers.
    Top with 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese.
    Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, basting the peppers two or three times while baking, about 80 minutes.
