Directions

For the salsa: Place the lime juice, cilantro, salt, tomatoes, jalapenos, onions and peppers in a food processor. Pulse to combine, then set aside.

For the stuffed peppers: Preheat the oven to 350 degree F. Start by cutting the peppers in half lengthwise, leaving the stems intact. Remove the seeds and ribs inside the peppers.

Heat a skillet to medium-high heat and add the olive oil and onions, cook for about 1 minute. Next add the ground beef and garlic and cook until the onions become translucent, about 8 minutes.

In a separate bowl mix 1 cup of the salsa, the rice, sour cream and green onions. Add the ground beef mixture and combine thoroughly. Stuff the mixture into the peppers. Sprinkle each pepper half with 2 tablespoons of the cheese.

Place the stuffed peppers in a casserole dish, cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and continue to cook until heated through, 15 minutes. Top with basil and enjoy.

    This took far longer prep time than advertised and it wasn't nearly worth the effort. I'd find another recipe.

    Good recipe. I will need to tweak a little bit to my tastes, but overall easy and tasty recipe.

    These stuff peppers are so delicious & filling. I didn't have any red peppers so I made them with green bell peppers, will try the red peppers next time. I will definitely be making these again. I prepared everything the night before and the next day popped them in the oven. I even had leftovers for lunch the next day. Great recipe!
