Stuffed Peppers

They're in the oven right now, I thought maybe I'd blog to pass the time. I'm starving :)

Stuffed Peppers
1 lb ground beef (I use 7% fat ground turkey)
1 large onion, chopped
1 15 oz can tomato sauce, divided
1 1/4 c water, divided
1 envelope Good Seasoning Garlic & Herb Dressing & Recipe mix
1 cup instant brown rice, uncooked
4 large green peppers, or 5 smaller green peppers

Directions:
Brown meat with onion in large skillet over medium heat. Stir in 1 cup of tomato sauce, 1 cup of water & salad dressing mix. Bring to a boil, stir in rice & cover. Remove from heat and let stand 5 min.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut tops off peppers and remove seeds. Mix remaining sauce and 1/4 c water in the bottom of a 9 in square baking dish. Place peppers in baking dish. Spoon meat mixture into peppers and cover with foil.

Bake 35 to 40 min or until peppers are tender. Spoon sauce from bottom of dish over peppers just before serving.
