Stuffed Green Peppers

Ingredients

  • 4 green bell peppers
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 medium sized onion, chopped
  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • 1 can (8oz) tomato sauce
  • 1 large garlic clove, finely chopped
  • 2-3 ribs of celery chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 teaspoon minced parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  •  4 tablespoons ketchup

Directions

Remove tops and seeds from peppers, and place them in a microwavable dish.  Add water, Cover and cook for 3 minutes in microwave.  Let stand without draining while preparing filling.  Combine beef, onion and celery in bowl and cook for 3 minutes.  Stir to crumble beef.  Add remaining ingredients except ketchup, and mix together well.  Divide among peppers.  (Once the peppers are stuffed, I just put the leftover mixture around them.) Cover and cook 10 minutes.  Spread 1 tablespoon of ketchup over top of each and cover: let stand 2-3 minutes to soften.
