Add water and rice to medium size pot and heat to bring to boil. Cover and reduce heat to low. Cook about 20-25 minutes until rice has absorbed the water. Do not lift lid.

While rice is cooking, in a skillet add ground beef and seasonings. Cook on medium until meat is lightly browned. Drain meat.

Cut and remove the tops and membranes of the bell peppers.

In a bowl, mix the browned beef, cooked rice and 1 1/2 cans of tomato sauce,

Spoon an equal amount of the mixture into each hollowed pepper. Add remaining sauce to tops of bell peppers.

Bake at 350 degrees for about 1 hour.

Tips - Add cheese to top when they are done for more flavor! Chop the tops in little pieces and add to the ground beef when cooking it to give it more flavor too!
