Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Halloween Stuffed Bell Peppers.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and greasing an 8x8-inch baking dish to ensure your delicious creation doesn’t stick.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, bring together the ground beef, a beaten egg, cubed bread, chopped onion, diced tomato, minced garlic, chili sauce, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
Step 3
Use your hands or a spoon to mix everything until it’s well combined and full of flavor.
Step 4
Next, take your bell peppers and give them a good wash.
Step 5
With a sharp paring knife, carefully carve out fun jack-o'-lantern faces—think triangle eyes, a cute nose, and a toothy grin! Don’t forget to slice off the tops of the peppers and scoop out the seeds and cores to make room for the tasty filling.
Step 6
Now it’s time to stuff each pepper with your savory beef mixture, packing it in lightly.
Step 7
Arrange the stuffed peppers upright in your greased baking dish, letting them lean against each other for a little support.
Step 8
Pop the dish into your preheated oven and let it bake for about an hour.
Step 9
You’ll know they’re ready when the peppers are tender and the stuffing is cooked through, juicy, and bursting with flavor.
Step 10
Enjoy the delightful aroma wafting through your kitchen as you anticipate a delicious meal!.
