Vegetarian Stuffed Peppers

• 1 small can green chili's
• 2 cups instant brown rice, uncooked
• 1 can tomato sauce
• 1 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 1 can black beans, drained
• 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese
• 4 red, green, or yellow bell peppers
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• olive oil

In a large pot, combine green chilis, rice, tomato sauce, and broth. Bring to a boil and cook until rice is tender, about 12-15 minutes. While the rice is cooking, clean the bell peppers, then slice the top 1/3 off of the peppers. Remove and discard all seeds and pith.

Take the pot of rice from the stove and stir in the black beans and cheese. Spoon the rice mixture into the center of the peppers. Set the stuffed peppers on a cookie sheet, replace the tops of the peppers, drizzle lightly with olive oil, then put the cookie sheet in your preheated oven. Allow peppers to bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the exterior is soft and slightly browned. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
