Steps:
- Wipe the mushroom caps clean. Remove stems completely.
- Rinse the roasted red pepper. Pat dry. Slice into thin strips.
- Put oven rack in lower one-third of oven and preheat to 450. Line a baking sheet with foil. Toss mushroom caps with oil, salt and pepper. Lay gill side down on sheet. Roast until they release juices and shrink, about 25 minutes.
- Remove them from oven. Let cool slightly. When cool enough to handle, flip, fill with cheese and place a few strips of red pepper on top. (At this point, they can be covered and chilled for up to 2 days. You may need to cook them a couple extra minutes tho.).
- Bake until mushrooms are hot and cheese is melted and bubbling, about 20 minutes. Remove to serving platter. Sprinkle with parsley and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Bring brown rice and water to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, place a cover on the saucepan, and simmer until the rice is tender, about 40 minutes; transfer to a large mixing bowl.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Break ground beef into small pieces and place in the skillet. Add onion, mushrooms, and garlic; cook and stir until the beef is completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Mix beef mixture into brown rice.
- Stir tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and Italian seasoning into the rice mixture and season filling with salt and black pepper.
- Arrange bell peppers in a baking dish. Spoon filling into bell peppers.
- Bake in preheated oven until the peppers are tender, about 1 hour. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the stuffed peppers to serve.

Tips:
- Choose the right mushrooms: Use large, firm mushrooms with intact stems. White button mushrooms, cremini mushrooms, and portobello mushrooms are all good choices.
- Roast the red peppers yourself: Roasting red peppers brings out their natural sweetness and flavor. To roast red peppers, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the peppers in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and ribs. Drizzle the peppers with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast the peppers for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly charred.
- Use a flavorful cheese: Manchego cheese is a firm, nutty cheese that pairs well with the roasted red peppers and mushrooms. You could also use Parmesan cheese, Gruyère cheese, or fontina cheese.
- Don't overstuff the mushrooms: The mushrooms will shrink as they cook, so don't overstuff them with the filling. Otherwise, the filling will ooze out and burn.

Stuffed mushrooms are a delicious and versatile appetizer or side dish. They can be made with a variety of fillings, so you can easily customize them to your liking.
