Cheesesteak Stuffed Peppers in 30 Minutes

stuffed peppers
I remember when I was young I was forced to eat stuffed pepper. I hated that. Worse yet, I was always made to eat them raw. Later in life I began to enjoy that. I remember the day, however, that my mom added a steak mixture and some cheese to some bell peppers she had pre-baked. My goodness, I thought I had died and gone to heaven. The taste and texture was simply out of this world. I perfected her cheesesteak stuffed bell peppers and still eat them today. It's a must on my menu at least once a month.

Note

I use red bell peppers in this recipe because I like the sweetness. You can use green or yellow peppers though. Of course, the ingredients you can alter to your liking. The main thing is to use a good cut of meat. That will make all the difference in the world.
