Southwestern Stuffed Peppers

11/24/2023

Tex-Mex flavors spice up this crowd-pleaser that’s equally at home as a weeknight family-friendly meal or for dinner guests.

By: Co+op

Total time: 35 min.
Servings: 8

Ingredients:
– 4 medium to large green peppers
– 2 cups frozen corn kernels
– 1 (15 oz) can cooked beans, drained and rinsed (black, pinto, or black-eyed peas)
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese or smoked cheddar
– 1/2 tsp salt
– 1 fresh or pickled jalapeño pepper, diced
– 1 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
– 1 cup salsa
– 1 cup cooked rice (optional)
– 1 tbsp butter
– 1 tsp paprika or smoked paprika

Preparation:
1) Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and bring a stockpot of water to a boil.
2) Cut the green peppers in half through the stems, or leave whole and remove the tops. Remove seeds and thick inner ribs. Blanch peppers for 4 minutes. Remove and reserve.
3) In a large bowl, combine the corn, beans or black-eyed peas, cheese, salt, jalapeño, cilantro, salsa, and rice (if using).
4) Stuff each pepper or pepper half with an equal amount of the filling and place in a baking dish.
