From dynie 12 years agoIngredients
- 4 bell peppers (green, yellow, or red) shopping list
- 1/4 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil shopping list
- 1 pound extra-lean ground beef shopping list
- 1 egg white shopping list
- 1/2 cup finely chopped yellow onion shopping list
- 2 tablespoons no-salt canned corn shopping list
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped dried or fresh parsley shopping list
- 1/4 cup toasted wheat germ shopping list
- pinch of ground black pepper shopping list
- 3/4 cup low-sodium tomato or spaghetti sauce shopping list
- 1 teaspoon prepared horseradish shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Pour 1/4" of water into a baking pan.
- Cut off the tops of the bell peppers, then carefully remove the seeds and membranes (pinch them out with your fingers or use a paring knife) and discard.
- Lightly coat the skins of the peppers with the oil.
- Place the peppers cut side down into the baking pan.
- Bake for 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, mix together the beef, egg white, onion, corn, parsley, wheat germ, black pepper, and 1/4 cup of the sauce.
- When the peppers are ready, remove them from the oven.
- Reduce the heat to 350°F.
- Fill each pepper with 1/4 of the beef mixture, then return the peppers to the baking pan cut side up (the pan should still have about 1/4" of water in it).
- Bake for 30 minutes.
- Stir together the horseradish and the remaining 1/2 cup tomato sauce and add a little to the top of each pepper.
- Bake for 15 minutes longer, or until the meat is no longer pink.
- You can refrigerate any leftover Beef Bombs for up to 2 days. Then either chow them cold, heat them up in a toaster oven at 350°F for 15 to 20 minutes, or throw them in the microwave for a few minutes. They make a quick and satisfying meal anytime.
