Stuffed Peppers Recipe

This is my mother-in-laws stuffed pepper recipe, I have a bad habit of losing or misplacing where I put a specific recipe so, here it will stay! Without further ado, here it is!






  • Rice
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • Spices (salt, pepper, garlic powder)
  • Peppers
  • Can of tomato soup


Preheat oven to 350°F

Cook the rice and let it cool

Take the ground beef, beat in 2 eggs, add salt, pepper, and a little garlic salt.

Mix well then add the cooled rice. The consistency should be such that you can form the meat into balls

Cut tops off of green peppers and clean out insides and rinse. Then blanch the peppers (immerse in boiling water for one minute or so and then immediately transfer to cold water. This ensues the peppers won't be bitter).

Stuff peppers with meat. Place in a deep casserole dish standing up. Pour tomato soup mixed with water over the tops of the peppers. There shod be soup on the bottom of the dish apps one inch deep.

Bake at 350 for about an hour 
or until meatloaf's internal temperature is between 155°F - 160°F

Let cool a bit, serve, enjoy!

My Meatloaf Recipe

I make meatloaf pretty regularly and am ALWAYS searching for the recipe that I use so I figured I'd share it here for anyone that actually reads this and so I can have one place I know I can look for it!

I suppose I should start out by saying that I'm not a big fan of measuring, I kind of just wing it and go by eye. Most important thing is to note that the meatloaf's internal temperature should be between 155°F - 160°F.

For this meal I also made Parmesan Potatoes (recipe here) and took a bag of frozen broccoli and seasoned it to my liking. Without further ado, this is my meatloaf recipe.




  • 1lb ground beef
  • 1 packet of ranch dressing mix
  • 1 packet onion mix
  • 1 large egg
  • Spices (oregano, Italian, parsley, basil, garlic powder)


Preheat oven to 350°F

Take the ground beef, ranch packet, onion packet, egg, and seasonings and mix in a medium/large bowl.

Put the mixture above into a meatloaf pan/container

Place in oven for about an hour or until meatloaf's internal temperature is between 155°F - 160°F

Let cool a bit, serve, enjoy!
