1) Core peppers by removing stem and then scooping out interior,
removing all the white pith and seeds. Parboil for 3 minutes in
boiling water; remove, rinse in cold water and drain.This is one of the
vegetable recipes for weight loss

2) Heat oil in frying pan, add onion, fry 2 minutes. Add zucchini, fryanother 3 minutes. Add mushrooms, fry another 1 minute, drain [this is to keep the filling from being soupy; you may want to try just
sauteing until the liquid is gone]. Add rest of ingredients, with salt
and pepper to taste. Combine thoroughly.

3) Fill peppers with mixture. Stand upright (cutting a small slice off the bottom if necessary) in an ovenproof disk with 2 or 3 T water in
the bottom.

4) Bake at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes, or until the peppers are
tender. Serve hot.
Ideas: add basil, top with cayenne pepper.

Stuffed Green Peppers
About 8 Peppers (Green/Red/or whatever colour)
1 lb hot Italian Sausage cumbled
1 lb ground beef
1 onion chopped
1-2 cups fresh or canned tomatoes
1 cup cooked rice
Italian Seasoning
Seasoned Pepper
Grated Mozzarella

Saute beef, sausage, onion until browned. Drain fat off. Add tomatoes, seasonings and simmer for a little bit. Add rice. Stuff into peppers that have been cut lengthwise and cleaned out. Sprinkle with mozarella or parmesan. Bake in a casserole with some tomatoe sauce underneath peppers at about 350 until hot. These freeze great. I make a lot at this time of year when peppers are cheap and freeze them.The above are just two of the vegetable recipes for weight loss there are so many others in this pdf file.
