A little pizazz added to my Mom's Stuffed Peppers

Growing up my mom sometimes made stuffed peppers which were always tasty. So when I got my own place a year and a half ago and had to cook for myself and wanted to make my boyfriend something tasty one night for dinner she shared the recipe. Since making these for the first time I've added some of my own pizazz to them, so here's my mom's recipe for Stuffed Peppers with my own touch!

Cooking Time: 35 minutes Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Ingredients:

1 or 2 green peppers or I like to use at least 1 red pepper
1/4 lb of hamburger (sometimes I use a little more so they are really stuffed!!)
1 cup of cooked rice
Garlic
1 or 2 cans of tomato soup, depending on how much gravy you like

-Cut Peppers in half
-Bring a pot of water to a boil
-Add peppers and cook for 5 minutes
-Drain peppers
-Put beef, cooked rice, garlic, salt, and pepper ( I like red pepper flakes, gives it a kick and some sage for a different flavor) and 1/4 can of tomato soup in a bowl
-Mix together and fill pepper halves
-Mix the rest of the soup with 1 can of water or 2 if you are using 2 cans
-Pour over the peppers
-Cover with foil and bake for 35 minutes in a 350 degree oven

It's definitely a tasty and filling recipe and they are always better the next day!
