Overstuffed Peppers with Piquant Sauce


Yum yum yum, I love stuffed peppers, they are like mini-meat loaves!

2 large green peppers
1 lb ground beef
1 envelope of onion soup mix
½ cup bread crumbs
1 tsp oregano
1 egg
¼ cup ketchup
1 lb ground beef
3 Tbsp brown sugar
4 Tbsp ketchup
½ tsp nutmeg
1 tsp dry mustard

Preheat oven to 400º

Cut peppers in half and discard seeds and white pulp. Wash and set on paper towels to drain.

In large bowl combine ground beef, onion soup mix, bread crumbs, oregano, egg and ¼ cup ketchup. Mix well. Pack tightly into green pepper halves. Arrange closely in lightly greased baking dish.

In small bowl combine brown sugar, nutmeg, dry mustard and ketchup and stir well. (I double this recipe because I like extra after it bakes); spoon evenly over peppers.

Bake uncovered at 400º for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 350º and cover peppers with aluminum foil or baking dish cover and cook an additional 40-45 minutes. Remove from baking dish immediately. Add more sauce if desired.
