How To Make southwest stuffed peppers

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 9x13 inch glass baking pan with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.

Step 2

Combine ground beef with onion, egg, salt, pepper, cumin, green chiles, corn, ¼ cup of enchilada sauce and ½ cup of the cheese. Mix well.
Step 3

Seed and half peppers lengthwise. Fill equally with beef mixture. Pour the remaining sauce on top of peppers. Cover with foil and bake 45-55 minutes, or until beef is cooked and peppers are soft.
Step 4

Remove foil and top with remaining cheese; bake an additional 5-10 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Serve warm with toppings, if desired.
