Number Of Ingredients 12

4 lasagna noodles
4 large green bell peppers, halved and seeds and veins removed
19 ounces mild Italian sausage (such as Johnsonville®)
1 small onion, chopped
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ cup ricotta cheese
1 egg
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • Remove peppers from oven and pour off any excess liquid. Leave oven on.
  • Whisk ricotta cheese, egg, Parmesan cheese, and basil together in a small mixing bowl. Layer each bell pepper half with 2 tablespoons sausage mixture, 1 noodle piece, and 1 tablespoon ricotta mixture. Repeat layers and sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top of each pepper. Place stuffed peppers on the baking sheet.
  • Bake stuffed peppers in the preheated oven until cheese is browned and bubbly, about 25 minutes.
