Stuffed Bell Peppers

My husband LOVES stuffed peppers myself i personally just like the filling lol but these are a big hit in my house! Its a very simple recipe and you can add what you like i always put jalapenos and banana peppers in the bottom of my peppers and i add onions to the hubby's peppers since i don't like them, its a good meal to customize for the picky eaters in your house! 

as you can see 2 of these have onions on the top that way i would know what ones had onions inside :) 

What you will need:

(this makes six peppers)

1 poundground beef

1/2 cupuncooked long grain white rice

1 cupwater

6 green bell peppers

2 canstomato sauce

1 tablespoonWorcestershire sauce

1/4 teaspoongarlic powder

1/4 teaspoononion powder; to taste

1 teaspoonItalian seasoning

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Place the rice and water in a saucepan, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and cook 20 minutes. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the beef until evenly browned.

Remove and discard the tops, seeds, and membranes of the bell peppers. Arrange peppers in a foil lined baking dish with the hollowed sides facing upward. (Slice the bottoms of the peppers if necessary so that they will stand upright.)

In a bowl, mix the browned beef, cooked rice, 1 can tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Spoon an equal amount of the mixture into each hollowed pepper. Mix the remaining tomato sauce and Italian seasoning in a bowl, and pour over the stuffed peppers.

Bake 1 hour in the preheated oven, basting with sauce every 15 minutes, until the peppers are tender.

Enjoy!

Lemon Dream Cake

Its been a while since I have posted anything Life has gotten away from me the past couple of weeks BUT I did try a couple new recopies and this is one of them, I liked it the nice thing about this you could make it with whatever you like you could change the cake mix, pie filling, and icing to whatever you and your family likes, I love lemon so i thought i would try it the way the original recipe said can wait to try other combinations! 

What you will need:

1 (18.25 oz.) box French Vanilla Cake Mix

ingredients needed to make cake (eggs, oil and water)

1 (15.75 oz.) can lemon pie filling

1 tub lemon flavored frosting

1 ( 8oz.) tub whipped topping, thawed

Directions: 

Preheat oven to 350F degrees

Spray a 9x13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray (I like the kind that has flour in it).

Prepare cake mix as directed on the back of the box.

Pour batter into baking dish.

Place spoonfuls of lemon pie filling all over the batter.

Take a knife and swirl it all around to help evenly distribute it better.

Note: The lemon pie filling is heavier than the cake batter. So it will sink to the bottom of the cake as it is cooking. 

Don't worry, it won't burn. This is normal.

Bake at 350F degrees (in center rack) for about 35-40 minutes.

Until it springs back to the touch and isn't jiggly in the center.

Let cake cool completely before proceeding to the next step.

In a bowl, combine lemon flavored frosting with whipped topping.

Mix until thoroughly combined.

You can do this by hand or with an electric mixer.

It actually comes together pretty easily by hand, but it's up to you.

Spread frosting over cooled cake.

Refrigerate until chilled and keep any leftovers refrigerated.

ENJOY!
