Everyone needs a delicious, Classic Stuffed Peppers recipe in their go-to recipe collection!
Classic Stuffed Peppers – bell peppers filled with rice, ground beef, tomatoes, and onions that are seasoned to perfection and topped with a rich tomato sauce – is a recipe that everyone loves! There is nothing better than the aroma of a tray of stuffed peppers baking in the oven.
What I also love about this Classic Stuffed Peppers recipe is that you can cook up a big batch of stuffed peppers – then pack up any leftovers to take for lunch the next day. (They reheat beautifully in the microwave or in a toaster oven!)

Stuffed peppers even freeze well – so make a double batch, then wrap each cooked pepper tightly and freeze. You can take them out and reheat one at a time, or reheat the extra batch for your family dinner.

Today’s Classic Stuffed Peppers recipe is a no-frills recipe – after all, why mess with a classic! But this is the type of recipe you can really customize based on flavors and ingredients that you like:
- Swap in red, yellow, or orange bell peppers instead of using green bell peppers. While green peppers are less expensive and do have that distinct pepper flavor, the other color peppers are sweeter and have a more mild flavor.
- Add cheese on top of your stuffed peppers before baking or before serving if you’d like!
- Swap in brown rice or quinoa instead of using long-grain white rice in the stuffing.
- Swap in ground turkey or chicken, or add Italian sausage to the ground stuffing for a different taste.
- Add vegetables to the stuffing mixture. Some diced zucchini, peas, or even cooked Brussels sprouts are great options.
- Play around with different spices and seasonings. While this recipe includes your classic dry Italian seasoning blend, taco seasoning would be equally delicious.
These Classic Stuffed Peppers are a filling meal on their own, or you can serve them alongside a salad or soup. Enjoy!
