Ingredients:
1 Tablespoon butter
4 Green bell peppers
1 1/2 pounds ground sirloin
1/2 pound ground sausage (hot, mild, your choice)
1 small white onion, diced fine
Oregano, Seasoned Pepper and Fennel Seed [optional] to taste
6 Roma tomatoes
2 teaspoons of crushed garlic or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
6 ounces of fresh Feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup grated parmesan or romano cheese
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (optional)

Spray casserole dish with PAM. Cook ground sirloin and sausage at low to medium
heat, stirring often. Once meat is cooked through, drain thoroughly. Add all butter,
onions, garlic, oregano, seasoned pepper, fennel seed and 3/4 of tomatoes. Simmer
over low heat approximately 20 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Cut off tops of all peppers, remove inner seeds and membranes and wash
thoroughly. Fill all peppers with meat mixture, alternating with a layer of feta and
parmesan cheeses. Place peppers into a casserole dish, side by side, adding the
remaining tomatoes to the dish (around and under the peppers so they cook up and
into the peppers.) [Alternatively, you can cut peppers in half vertically and stuff each
half, making serving easier and speeding bake-time.]

Add any remaining mixture around the peppers and sprinkle all remaining feta and
parmesan cheeses on top. Add shredded mozzarella cheese if desired for a hint of
extra flavor.

Bake at 350°F for approximately 30 minutes or until browned and bubbly as desired.

Makes 4 stuffed peppers (or 8 half-peppers.)   5 net grams of carbohydrate per
