SHRIMP STUFFED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Begin by making rice so it can be ready when shrimp sauce is ready.

• Season shrimp with creole seasoning.
• Add shrimp and saute until shrimp are cooked through about 3 to 5 minutes. (At this point, it may be necessary to discard extra liquid out of the pot. A little liquid is fine to leave. My shrimp were just defrosted so I had a lot of liquid to take out).
• Remove shrimp to a bowl.
• Add a little more oil to pot, and saute onion, green peppers, and garlic. Season with a little more creole seasoning. Saute until onions are clear about 10 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium low and add diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, cream of mushroom and stir.
• Add shrimp back to sauce and stir.
• Stir in cooked rice. Turn off heat.
• Fill each pepper with a good amount of shrimp mixture.

• Cover casserole dish with foil and seal tightly.
• Bake at 350 for 25 minutes.
• Remove from oven. Carefully remove foil (be careful of steam) and top with a little shredded cheese and fresh parsley.
