Instructions

Step 1

Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C). While it’s warming up, grab a large skillet and cook the ground beef over medium-high heat. Stir it around until it’s nicely browned and crumbly, which should take about 5 to 7 minutes. Once the beef is cooked, drain off any excess grease.

Step 2

Next, add the water and taco seasoning to the skillet with the beef. Keep cooking and stirring until the water has mostly evaporated—this usually takes about 5 minutes.

Step 3

In a big bowl, combine the seasoned beef with the cooked rice, tomato soup, chopped tomatoes, mushrooms, red onion, crumbled feta, and sliced green onions. Mix it all together well.

Step 4

Now, stuff each green bell pepper with the mixture and place them upright in a baking dish. Pop the dish into your preheated oven and bake for about an hour, or until the peppers are tender and the filling is heated through.

Serving Suggestions

Storage Tips

Store leftover peppers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave to keep the peppers tender without drying out the filling. You can also freeze the filling separately for up to 2 months and stuff fresh peppers when ready.
