As a mom, full time teacher and wife, I am always looking for quick, simple, healthy and budget friendly dinners. I've become a bit of a nut about using canned or jarred ingredients, so if I have to I like to try and use natural or organic when I can. This dinner fits the bill.
Undone Stuffed Pepper Saucepan Casserole
2 large green peppers
1/2 pound ground turkey or chicken
1/2 pound ground beef
1 jar Newman's Own Marinara Sauce
2 cups cooked rice
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Cook rice according to package directions. While the rice is cooking, chop the green peppers in to bite size pieces. Sautee hamburger until cooked through. Add peppers and cook till crisp tender. Into the pan, add the jar of sauce and the cooked rice and cook about 5 minutes. Toss cheese on top and cover until melted. (I am usually to impatient to wait for it to melt and just stir it in.)
This easily feeds my family of 4 with PLENTY of leftovers.
Enjoy!
