The stuffed peppers with meat are a colorful and inviting second course, perfect for a family dinner or a Sunday lunch. Very quick and tasty, they are prepared in a few steps and the filling of these peppers remains very soft, melting in your mouth with every bite. I used sweet long peppers, which with their slender shape are perfect for stuffing and become very tender when cooked. It is a versatile recipe that always conquers everyone, ideal for those looking for a rich but simple dish to prepare.

Steps for Stuffed Peppers
Start by washing the sweet peppers and cutting them in half lengthwise; make sure to dry them well and set them aside.
Take a large bowl and add the ground meat, the egg, the cheese, the bread crumbs or the soaked and squeezed sandwich bread, the parsley, a pinch of salt, and the tablespoons of breadcrumbs.Carefully mix everything using a fork or directly with your hands, until you get a homogeneous mixture.
Finally, take our peppers and start compacting the filling inside each half, spreading it evenly.
To make the peppers even more delicious, just sprinkle the baking dish with some oil and breadcrumbs.
Proceed to bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 35 minutes.
