Recipe- Lasagna Stuffed Peppers!




What is on the Menu this weekend? Lasagna! Most of you know I don't eat pasta any longer - that doesn't mean I can't still have one of my favorites! Eating clean is all about finding new ways to have the old recipes that you love! This is a great example of it.

 INGREDIENTS
4 Large Bell Peppers
3 Cups Tomato Sauce - add your favorite meat 
1 Cup Ricotta Cheese
1 Cup Mozzarella Cheese 
½ Cup Parmesan Cheese 
1 Tbs. Italian Seasoning 
 DIRECTIONS
1.Preheat oven to 400° 
2.Prep Peppers. Cut in half lengthwise, remove ribs and seeds.  Place Pepper halves on lined baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes.

3.Remove the Peppers from oven.  Fill each Pepper about 3/4 full with Sauce. 

4.Spoon 2 Tbs. of Ricotta Cheese on top of the Sauce in each Pepper.  Next finish with some Meat Sauce on top of the Ricotta Cheese.

5.Top each Pepper with 2 Tbs. Mozzarella Cheese.  Bake for 12 minutes.

 6.Remove Peppers from oven.  Top each Pepper with a sprinkle of Parmesan Cheese and a sprinkle of Italian Seasoning.  Bake 5-7 additional minutes.

Let cool a bit and ENJOY!!

This will be so good you will say - "Who needs noodles!!"
