Stuffed Bell Peppers

4-6 Large Bell Peppers
1 lb ground beef
1 lb ground sausage (like Jimmy Deans)
2 cans tomato sause (or spaghetti sauce)
1 pkg. frozen seasoning blend
1 cup cooked rice

Brown the meats and drain. Set aside.
Cook the rice. Add to the meat.
Saute the Seasoning Blend. Add the meat and rice mixture to this.

Cut the tops off the peppers and get all the seeds out. Boil them for about 3-5 minutes; until they are soft.
Remove the peppers and let them dry upside down on a paper towel until they are cool enough to handle.
Place the peppers in a baking dish. Fill each pepper with the rice/meat mixture. Fill to the top!
Pour the tomato sauce all over the peppers and then pour some more in the bottom of the dish.
Bake for about 30-45 minutes on 350.

You will probably have some leftover meat mixture..it's ok, because it is essentially Dirty Rice that can be eaten as a side dish the next day!
