👨‍🍳 Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Bring a pot of water to a boil.

Cook green bell peppers in the boiling water until soft, 5 to 8 minutes; drain.

Cook ground beef in large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking into small pieces with a spatula as it cooks, until completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes.

Drain and discard excess grease.

Transfer beef to a large bowl.

Stir rice, celery, onion, and about half the tomato sauce with the ground beef; season with salt and pepper.

Stuff cooked green peppers with the ground beef mixture.

Arrange stuffed peppers in a baking dish.

Pour enough water into the baking dish to about 1-inch deep.

Pour remainder of tomato sauce over the peppers.

Bake in preheated oven until heated through, about 30 minutes.
