Hi! That Spicy Cabbage sounds yummy!! So with all the meat we have from the cow Andy and I decided we want to make some meals that we freeze and are able to eat whenever. So tomorrow we are devoting the day to cooking. We are going to make two batches of stuffed peppers. We are NOT going to cook them, instead we are going to freeze them and when we want to eat them we will simply take them out of the freezer and then bake them as normal.

Stuffed Peppers (this is actually a super healthy meal, we got it from P90X and Andy added his own style to it)

Green, yellow or red pepper (your choice, I like yellow it adds a little sweetness to it)
pound of ground beef
onion
minced garlic
brown rice
ketchup
Dijon mustard
Worcestershire sauce
Salt and Pepper
cheese- we like sharp cheddar the most

Cook the brown rice (we use the brown rice from Trader Joe's.....thanks Emily. It cooks in the microwave and only takes a couple of minutes and it is delicious and not bad for you)

Cut out the middle of the peppers.

In a large mixing bowl, mix the uncooked ground beef, chopped onion (use as much or little onion as you want), garlic (again to your taste), one serving of brown rice, 3 to 5 shakes of Worcestershire sauce, a few squirts of ketchup, and one squirt of Dijon mustard, salt and pepper (to your taste), one cup of sharp cheddar. We found it best to mix it with your hands....really dive in there :)

Add mix into middle of pepper, fill to the top of the pepper. Top it with just a little bit of cheese. Put peppers on to a cookie sheet.

Bake for 1 hour at 350.

Happy Cooking!

  1. Freezing them is a great idea! We might have to do that as well. Also, I have had the Stokes stuffed peppers and they are great. :)
