Question: Stuffed Bell Peppers: what do you use as a filler,Cracker crumbs, bread crumbs, rice!?
Answers:
When I make them, (I use the same ingredients for stuffed peppers that I do with Cabbage Rolls) and I like to use a seasoned pre-cooked rice pilaf type deal (think: homemade Rice-a Roni)!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.Depends on which way I want my Peppers/Cabbage Rolls to take on: Italian, Eastern European, Mexican, etc!.!.!.!.!.then I decide on the seasonings to use in them to make it "that" flavor!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.Since these are basically "self contained mini meatloves that steam in vegetable casings" ( as one of my mentors at Cordon Bleu used to call them), you can literally go in any direction with them!.!.!.!.!.!.!.Enjoy!!!

And using red, yellow or orange peppers adds a better flavor than just green peppers!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.and use an thick sliced onion ring to stabelize them in the cooking dish!.!.!.!.!.EXP: Cut a medium sized onion into about 3/4 inch slices!.!.!.!.!.place in baking vessel, which the peppers will be cooked: place the peppers in the onion ring and that will stabilize them to stand up straight during the baking process!.!.!.!.!.!.I like to glaze mine with an appropriate glaze prior to serving!.!.!.!.!.!.!.(EX: A thick spiced tomato sauce and some Mozzerella on the Italian flavored ones!.!.!.!.!.)Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes, all of the above!. You can use the bread crumbs mixed with cream cheese, or use Stove Top stuffing, or fill with cooked rice!. The possiblities are up to you!.
But, most of the time that I've seen stuffed peppers, they were filled with ground beef!.!.!.similar to how you might prepare a meat loaf!. You could use ground turkey if you'd like, to keep the fat count down!.
You're on the right track!. Good Luck!Www@FoodAQ@Com

I use ground chuck, rice, my favorite salsa, and a bit of montery jack cheese!. I brown the chuck, add the rest, stuff the peppers and bake them at 350/40 minWww@FoodAQ@Com

Use rice if you want a Mexican flare, breadcrumbs for Italian, etc!. Use your imagination!Www@FoodAQ@Com

hamburger, rice ,can tomato, onion,Www@FoodAQ@Com

No rules--first answer is great!. Left over chili & rice, topped with cheese is good, too!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Ground beef or sausage & rice, sometimes I add raisins!. Or sometimes couscous!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I use either corn or tiny pasta in the place of the rice!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

ground beef, rice, cheese, some seasoning, sounds good!Www@FoodAQ@Com
