Fill peppers with meat mix and put in oblong baking dish sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Cover peppers with tomato sauce and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Heat covered on HI for 10-12 minutes (more for large peppers). Let stand covered for 5 minutes.
I like the taste of red peppers, but you can use green, red, or yellow. I have also made this with ground turkey and it is equally good.
