Ingredients:

• 4 bell peppers: Any color will work, but choose large ones for easier stuffing and baking.
• 1 cup cooked rice: White or brown, depending on your preference.
• 1 cup shredded cheese: Cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix works well.
• 1/2 cup cooked ground beef: You can use leftover ground beef or cook fresh.
• Salt and pepper: To taste, for seasoning the filling.

Equipment:

• Homtone pizza oven with manual function.
• Baking sheets or silicone baking mats.
• Tongs or oven mitts for handling hot trays.
• A large mixing bowl.
• A sharp knife for cutting the bell peppers.
• A spoon for stuffing the peppers.

Instructions:

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

1. Preheat: Set your oven to the MANUAL function at 375°F (190°C). This temperature is suitable for baking stuffed peppers.

Step 2: Prepare the Bell Peppers

1. Halve and Clean: Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes.
2. Boil: Blanch the bell peppers in boiling water for about 2 minutes until they are slightly softened. This will make them easier to stuff and bake.

Step 3: Make the Filling

1. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice, shredded cheese, cooked ground beef, salt, and pepper until well mixed.
2. Taste: Adjust the seasoning to your liking.

Step 4: Stuff the Bell Peppers

1. Stuff Peppers: Carefully fill each bell pepper half with the rice mixture, packing it tightly but not too firmly to avoid splitting.

Step 5: Bake the Stuffed Peppers

1. Prepare Baking Sheets: Lightly grease the baking sheets or use silicone baking mats.
2. Place Stuffed Peppers: Arrange the stuffed bell peppers on the baking sheets, standing up.
3. Bake: Place the baking sheets with the stuffed peppers in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the filling is heated through.

Step 6: Serve

1. Cool: Remove the stuffed peppers from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
2. Serve: Slice each pepper half into smaller pieces and serve with your favorite side dish.

Tips for Stuffed Bell Peppers:

• Pepper Selection: Choose large bell peppers for easier handling and stuffing.
• Filling Consistency: Ensure the filling is moist but not too wet to avoid soggy peppers.
• Baking Time: Keep an eye on the peppers as they bake to prevent overcooking.
• Storage: Store leftovers in an a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
