Pizza-Stuffed Peppers

In a recent final result of Pillsbury's Pot Pies & Casseroles cookbook, I industrial plant life a recipe for Pizza-Stuffed Peppers, made amongst orzo pasta instead of rice, which intrigued me. They were real slowly to brand as well as were quite good. This would live a swell recipe for kids. They were real slowly to brand as well as were quite practiced PIZZA-STUFFED PEPPERS 1/2 loving cup uncooked orzo
4 cups boiling water
6 pocket-size bell peppers
10 ounces lay down turkey
1/2 loving cup diced pepperoni
15 oz. of pizza sauce
1½ cups mozzarella shredded
1/2 loving cup water

Cook the orzo inward iv cups boiling H2O for iii minutes (see note). Drain as well as rinse amongst mutual frigidity H2O thus laid aside. Cut overstep off of bell pepper as well as build clean out seeds as well as membranes, rinse. If pepper does non sit down straight, bring down a piddling off the bottom.
Brown lay down turkey as well as pepperoni over medium-high estrus for 4-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until turkey is non longer pinkish thus drain well. Stir inward pizza sauce, ane loving cup of cheese as well as the partially cooked pasta. Divide mixture evenly betwixt the bell peppers.

Spray a 5-6 quart wearisome cooker amongst vegetable spray as well as pour inward 1/2 loving cup water. Stand filled bell peppers upright inward wearisome cooker, supersede bell pepper tops. Put lid on as well as educate on depression for iv to v hours. Just earlier serving, take away pepper tops as well as overstep amongst remaining cheese, educate v to 10 minutes to a greater extent than or until cheese is melted.

To take away bell peppers from wearisome cooker, elevator out amongst large slotted spoon, using tongs to back upwards peppers (do non squeeze).
I didn't brand mine inward the crockpot. Instead, I pre-cooked the empty bell peppers (wrapped inward plastic wrap) for iii minutes inward the microwave. I thus filled them amongst the filling mixture as well as baked them inward a 350 marking oven for 25 minutes. I thus topped them amongst lots of cheese (more than the recipe calls for) as well as baked them only about other v minutes or thus until the cheese was all melty.
NOTE: There are several ways to pre-cook the empty bell peppers before y'all fill upwards them. You tin blanch them inward boiling water, but I uncovering that microwaving them works better.

NOTE: If y'all usage my method of baking these bell peppers, educate the orzo for the sum nine minutes earlier mixing it amongst the residual of the ingredients. I likewise added most a loving cup of chopped mushrooms to meat mixture during the final purpose of its cooking time.
