    • ½ cup bread crumbs
    • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning

  • Vegetables

    • 🧄 3 cloves garlic, chopped
    • 🧅 ½ small onion, finely chopped
    • 6 white mushrooms, chopped
    • 4 bell peppers, tops cut off and seeded

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with aluminum foil.

2

Mix together ground beef, bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, garlic, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, egg, onion, and mushrooms in a large bowl. Spoon mixture evenly into the seeded bell peppers. Replace the tops. Place stuffed peppers in the prepared dish.

3

Bake in the preheated oven until meat stuffing is cooked through, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and discard the pepper tops.

4

Sprinkle stuffed peppers with remaining 1/4 cup mozzarella and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Return to the oven until cheese is melted, about 2 minutes.

5

Warm spaghetti sauce in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring regularly. When sauce begins to steam, remove from heat and pour over the top of peppers.
