Recipe Notes

Water Helps prevent the instant pot from burning on the bottom. Feel free to use chicken or vegetable broth for added flavor. Rice: I’m using white rice in this recipe, brown rice would work as well. Diced Tomatoes: Add delicious flavor to the peppers. Actually, I’m using classic diced, but fire-roasted tomatoes are even better. Cheese: I’m using Monterey jack cheese, but feel free to use anything you like – cheddar, mozzarella, provolone, etc. Garlic: Adds earthiness and delicious flavor to the peppers. Spices: Chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika add delicious Tex-Mex flavor to the stuffed peppers. Feel free to use 2 tablespoons of your favorite taco seasoning if you prefer. Peppers: I’m using red, green, and yellow bell peppers but feel free to use any color you like! 

The Best Way to Cut Stuffed Peppers

Lay the pepper on its side and cut off the top. With the knife, cut the inside edges of the pepper to hollow out and remove the core. To serve the stuffed peppers, cut them in half to make the stuffed pepper easier to eat.
