ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 (1 1/4 ounce) envelope taco seasoning
• 3⁄4 cup canned kidney beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 cup salsa
• 4 medium green peppers
• 1 medium tomatoes, chopped
• 1⁄2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1⁄2 cup sour cream

directions

1. In a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in the taco seasoning, kidney beans and salsa. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
2. Cut peppers in half lengthwise; remove stems and discard seeds. In a large kettle, cook peppers in boiling water for 3-5 minutes. Drain and rinse in cold water.
3. Spoon about 1/2 cup meat mixture into each pepper half. Place in an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Cover and bake at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until the peppers are crisp-tender and filling is heated through. Top each with tomato and cheese. Serve with sour cream.
