Stuffed Peppers

6-8 firm green peppers, tops, seeds, and core removed
1 lb. ground chuck or pork, browned with onion, rinsed and drained
1 small onion, chopped, browned with meat
8 oz. kidney beans, rinsed and drained
8 oz. tomato paste
water
1/2 t. salt
2 1/4 c. rice, cooked
1 t. sugar
3/4 t. chili powder
1/4 t. garlic salt
1/3 c. shredded mozzarella cheese

Place small amount of mozzarella cheese in bottom of each pepper. Combine remaining ingredients and spoon inside peppers. Stand peppers in sprayed pyrex dish. Water to cover bottom of dish may be used if desired. I also added 1 beef bouillon cube to the water. Bake at 375 degrees for 35-45 minutes, or until tender. Sprinkle with remaining cheese while hot and serve right away.

*Serve with a tossed salad for a complete meal : )
