Ingredients
1 cup cooked brown basmati rice3 cloves chopped or crushed garlic1 15 oz. can of tomato sauce1 packaged Smart Ground original veggie crumbles2 c. mushrooms (diced small)6 green bell peppers with seeds/innards removed.
Cook brown rice while preparing other items.
Preheat oven to 350. Cut the tops off your peppers and save. Remove seeds and inside bits from peppers. Chop useable bits of pepper tops into small pieces and save. Toss the stem and unedible bits of the tops.
Chop garlic and mushrooms into small pieces. Place mushrooms, green pepper bits, garlic, tomato sauce and veggie ground crumbles into pan. I use a cast iron skillet and spray with canola oil cooking spray. Cook until heated. Add cooked rice and stir well.
Place peppers into a glass baking dish. Fill peppers with filling mixture. Bake at 300-350, uncovered, until peppers are tender (not mushy!). Filling at top of pepper will brown nicely. When done, pull out of the oven and let sit for a few minutes. Serve.
Makes 6 medium sized stuffed peppers.

Excellent! I did change it slightly to lower the sodium I used salt free tomato sauce. Everyone loved it! - 8/18/09

Excellent! Thanks for the comment. Yeah, the sodium is a bit high, I figured it was due to the crumbles but I guess the sauce doesn't help. ;)
