4 whole Green Or Red Bell Peppers
4 Tablespoons Olive Oil
1 whole Medium Sweet Onion, Chopped
2 cloves Garlic, Minced
1 pound Lean Ground Beef
3/4 cups Raw Instant Rice
1 can 15oz. Canned Diced Tomatoes
1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce
1 dash Tabasco (optional)
1 teaspoon Dried Oregano

1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat.
2
Meanwhile, cut tops off of the peppers and remove seeds and ribbing.
3
Add salt to boiling water, then add peppers and boil, using a spoon to keep peppers completely submerged, until they become a brilliant green color (or red if red peppers) and their flesh slightly softened, about 3 minutes.
4
Drain, set aside to cool.
5
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
6
Add onions and garlic, and cook, stirring often, until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
7
Remove skillet from heat.
8
In a large bowl combine meat, rice, tomatoes, onion mixture, worcestershire, tabasco and oregano, then season generously with salt and pepper.
9
Mix well.
10
Arrange peppers cut side up in an 8x8 baking dish, then stuff peppers with filling.
11
Top each pepper with grated sharp cheddar cheese.
12
Add 1/2 cup of water to the baking dish.
13
Place in oven and bake for 40-50 minutes (or longer, depending on how big the peppers are that you are stuffing).
14
If cheese starts getting too brown, cover with foil.
