PAN FRIED MEATLOAF IN TRICOLOR PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Remove core and seeds from peppers. Slice into 1 inch rings and place on nonstick baking sheet. You should get about 3 rings per pepper. In a large bowl mix together beef, turkey, bread, 1/2 cup of the tomatoes, garlic, egg, onion, chopped sage, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and season with salt and pepper. Press meatloaf mixture evenly into pepper rings. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add oil. Saute meatloaf rings on both sides until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Add remaining tomatoes to skillet and bake until cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat 1-inch vegetable oil until a deep-fry thermometer reaches 325 degrees F. Drop sage leaves into oil and fry until golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Garnish meatloaf rings with fried sage leaves.

MEATLOAF STUFFED PEPPERS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 400 Degrees.
• 2. In a large mixing bowl combine ground beef, 1/2 cup of the tomatoes and juice, chopped onion, egg, seasonings, and worcestershire sauce together. Start mixing in bread crumbs. I didn't measure this one, but if I had to guestimate, I'd say I used between 1-2 cups. Start small, and start mixing in until themeat mixture pulls together well.
• 3. Core the peppers by cutting through the top of each pepper and removing the seeds and core. Slice each pepper into 3 rings, make sure they're fairly thick (tall) slices.
• 4. Heat a tablespoon or so of olive oil in a deep OVEN PROOF skillet over medium-high heat. While oil is heating, start packing the meat mixture into your pepper rings. To do this, take a handful of meat mix, and tightly shape it around a single cube of cheddar, making sure to seal it in very well so the cheese doesn't leak out. Once the cheese is sealed in each meat "bundle", pack the bundles into your peppers TIGHTLY. You almost want to overpack them, as the ground beef will cook down a bit, and start pulling away from the peppers in the skillet.
• 5. Carefully place the pepper patties into the skillet, turn your heat down to medium and cook approximately 5 minutes on each side. Once done, pour your remaining tomatoes and basil WITH juice over top of the pepper loaves and let it cook down for another 2-3 minutes with the grease. This is going to make an absolutely awesome sauce.
• 6. Turn off your burner and carefully place the entire skillet into the oven for 20-25 minutes, just enough to cook down the sauce a little more, and heat everything through.
• 7. Serve topped/garnished with the tomato basil sauce from the pan. Enjoy!!!

ITALIAN STUFFED BELL PEPPERS --PLUS A MEATLOAF

Steps:

• For the Meatloaf, combine all of the ingredients and mix well (I use my hand for this).
• If you are making JUST the MEATLOAF, form it in a 9x13 greased pan and bake 400 degrees for 1 hour, basting with the pan juices.
• For the MEATLOAF, combine the MEATLOAF SAUCE ingredients in a saucepan, and heat on the stove to serve warm over the Meatloaf slices at the table.
• If you are making the ITALIAN STUFFED GREEN PEPPERS you will also get a meatloaf out of this.
• For the ITALIAN STUFFED PEPPERS cut the tops off the peppers and clean them out.
• Cut the tops up to use for the sauce.
• Put these in a pan with a little olive oil along with the onions, and garlic--simmer till done.
• Add the tomato sauce and simmer while you are preparing the stuffing for the peppers.
• Cook the rice according to box directions.
• Also, cut a tad off the bottom of the peppers so that they will sit in the pan and not tilt (don't cut through to the inside).
• Mix 3-4 cups of the Meatloaf recipe mixture, Parmesan cheese, garlic, a little of the sauce, and the cooked rice in a large bowl--adding the rice till it looks like the amount you like (I eyeball most all of the ingredients).
• Stuff the peppers and place in a pan on which you have already put a layer of sauce.
• Put some sauce over the tops of the peppers.
• Cover with foil.
• Form the rest of the mixture into a loaf as directed above.
• Bake both at 400 degrees for about 1 hour or till done.
• Now you have 2 meals--freeze some if you like.
