Ingredients:
4 medium-size green peppers |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1 clove garlic, minced |
2 tablespoons butter or margarine |
1/2 pound ground chuck |
1 (14 1/2-ounce) can tomatoes, drained and chopped |
3/4 cup cooked regular rice |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
1/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese |

Directions:
1. Cut off tops and remove seeds from peppers. Discard seeds and set tops aside. Cook peppers 5 minutes in boiling salted water; drain well, and set aside. 2. Chop tops of peppers; combine with onion and garlic. Sauté vegetables in butter in a large skillet until tender; add meat, and cook until meat is browned, stirring to crumble. Drain well. Stir in tomatoes, rice, salt, and pepper. 3. Fill peppers with meat mixture. Place in an 8-inch square baking dish. Top each pepper with cheese and cracker crumbs.
