Nawlins-Style Stuffed Bell Peppers - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 lb extra lean ground beef
2 garlic cloves
1 cup red onion
1 cup celery
6 cups dirty rice mix, prepared (includes ground beef mentioned above)
1 egg
2 tablespoons hot pepper sauce (I use Frank's Red Hot)
1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
6 bell peppers, hollowed and caps removed

Preparation

Brown ground beef with garlic, onions and celery.
Prepare Dirty Rice.
Add beef mixture to Dirty Rice and simmer for 25 minutes.
Remove from heat and let sit 5 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.
Prepare peppers by coring, removing seeds and cuting off tops (level the bottoms of any uneven so that they stand upright on their bottoms).
Beat egg with Frank's Red Hot sauce and add 1 cup cheese to egg mixture.
Add egg mixture to dirty rice/beef mixture.
Stuff each pepper to the top with meat and rice mixture, and place in glass baking dish.
Cover loosely with Alumnium Foil.
Cook in oven for 25 minutes.
Remove from oven, uncover and top each pepper with remaining cheese. Bake uncovered for an additional 10 minutes.
When finished, remove from oven and let sit 5 mins before serving.
