Stuffed Bell Peppers

Awhile ago I was sent this rice from Annie Chun's to test out.



I'm not a huge rice fan so it sat on the shelf waiting for me to feel inspired. I thought about making a stir-fry with it but stuffed bell peppers sounded so much better!



I picked orange bell peppers for Halloween.



I stuffed my bell peppers with; lean ground beef, Annie Chun's multigrain rice, chopped zucchini, parsley, tomato sauce, chopped jalapeno, scallions, garlic and hot sauce. Then I put them in the oven at 400 for 40 minutes. I had to watch the oven.

Next time I'll try using quinoa instead of rice. I've heard good things!

I'm way behind in blogging. AGAIN! Expect more from me soon!

P.S. I attempted to run 2 miles after work and really hurt my knee. I'm icing it right now and hoping that it will feel better tomorrow because I need to continue running! I hated running today. I felt like hell. Blah. Andy joined me at the gym and watched the Charger game while going on the elliptical. It's nice to have a gym buddy!

Also, while I was on the treadmill I accidently hit the emergency stop button. I was sprinting at 5.6 (I know, I know I'm slow!) and I almost fell off the treadmill. Then my knee started hurting and my left leg felt super tight. What the heck?
