Stuffed Pepper Recipe

Stuffed Pepper
  
Ingredients:
9 medium sized sweet peppers
2 cups of couscous of your choice (if you don't like couscous I'm sure you could substitute rice)
1 large can diced tomatoes
3 Sausages of your choice without casing (I used lean Blue Menu)
1/2 cup Red Onion
Garlic (to your taste, I crushed one clove)
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: Mozzarella cheese

Directions:

Remove casings from sausages and cut up, put in stove top pan.  Add onion and garlic and cook stove top until sausage is cooked through. While this is cooking, prepare your couscous, hollow your peppers and preheat the oven to 350*F.  Chop up the tops of 4-5 peppers to include in the stuffing mix.  Once sausage is cooked, add the couscous, chopped pepper, and can of tomatoes.  Heat stove top on low for a few minutes, constantly mixing. Stuff the peppers and put them in a pan with about a centimeter or two of water on the bottom. Cover with foil and put in the oven for 30 minutes.  At the 30 minute mark remove foil, sprinkle the tops with mozzarella and put back in the oven for 10 more minutes.
