Time 1h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
⅔ pound bulk breakfast sausage
4 medium green bell peppers
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon olive oil, or as needed
4 cups frozen shredded potatoes
1 medium onion, diced
4 large eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Combine Cheddar and mozzarella cheeses in a bowl.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Set sausage aside.
  • While sausage is frying, bring a pot of water to a boil. Cut the tops off of the green peppers and trim the insides. Parboil the peppers in the pot, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove to cold water, dry, and lightly salt the insides.
  • Heat oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the potatoes and onion in the hot oil, breaking up and turning periodically, until potatoes are golden brown and crispy, 5 to 7 minutes. Add sausage, 1/2 of the cheese blend, eggs, salt, and pepper. Turn off heat, mix gently but thoroughly, and let sit for 5 minutes. The eggs will not be fully cooked at this point, but will finish while baking.
  • Give the potatoes, eggs, and sausage blend one final mix and then gently stuff into the green peppers about 90% full, leaving space for reserved cheese blend. Do not pack tightly. Place in a baking dish and cover.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Uncover and continue to cook until eggs are set and peppers are tender, about 10 minutes. Top with reserved cheese blend and turn on the oven's broiler. Broil until cheese is browned, 4 to 5 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right peppers: Look for bell peppers that are firm, brightly colored, and have smooth skin. Avoid peppers that are bruised or have blemishes.
  • Prepare the peppers properly: Cut the peppers in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and ribs. Rinse the peppers well and pat them dry.
  • Cook the filling thoroughly: Make sure the meat and/or vegetables are cooked through before stuffing the peppers. This will help prevent foodborne illness.
  • Stuff the peppers loosely: Don't overstuff the peppers, or they will burst while cooking. Leave a little room for the filling to expand.
  • Bake the peppers at a high temperature: This will help to brown the peppers and give them a crispy texture.
  • Serve the peppers immediately: Stuffed peppers are best served hot out of the oven. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Stuffed peppers are a versatile dish that can be made with a variety of fillings and toppings. They are a great option for a quick and easy weeknight meal or for a special occasion. With a little planning and preparation, you can create a delicious and satisfying meal that everyone will enjoy.
