Method

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease baking sheet.

  • Prepare Hinode Rice per package instructions

  • Wash bell peppers and cut off tops and remove seeds. (Lids will be used to cover once stuffed).

  • Using a sharp paring knife, carve the Jack O’Lantern face into each pepper.

  • Place bell pepper into the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes or until cooked, checking every 5-10minutes.

  • While peppers are roasting, heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the onions, basil, Italian seasoning, garlic, salt and pepper in oil for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the diced tomato, and cook for 5 minutes. Spoon in the cooked rice, and stir until heated through.

  • Remove from heat, mix in the feta cheese, and spoon the mixture into the bell peppers.

  • Return to the oven for 5 minutes. Serve immediately.
