Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Slice the tops off the bell peppers and remove seeds and membranes. Place peppers upright in a baking dish.
  3. Sauté chopped onions in oil until translucent, about 3–4 minutes. Stir in ground beef and cook until browned, about 5–7 minutes.
  4. Stir in cooked rice and spices, mix thoroughly for about 2–3 minutes until well combined and heated through.
  5. Fill each pepper with the beef-rice mixture, carving jack-o'-lantern faces on the sides.
  6. If using cheese, sprinkle it on top of each filled pepper before baking.
  7. Bake stuffed peppers for 25–30 minutes or until tender and cheese is bubbly, if used.
  8. Remove from oven, let cool slightly, then garnish with your favorite toppings before serving.
