This adorable Halloween-themed dinner is perfect for a family dinner to fuel your trick-or-treating adventure.
Or serve them at a Halloween party and watch them disappear!
Don’t feel like freehand-carving the faces with a knife?
Try using a cookie cutter instead.
Remove from heat and stir in rice, 3/4 cup tomato sauce and parsley.
Meanwhile, cut out stem ends of bell peppers and set aside; scoop out seeds.
With a sharp paring knife, cut out a jack-o'-lantern face on one side of each pepper.
Place the peppers and tops, cut-side down, in a microwave-safe pie pan.
Add 14 cup water.
Microwave on High until tender but firm, 4 to 6 minutes.
Empty the water from the dish and turn the peppers cut-side up.
Stuff the peppers with the beef mixture.
Spoon the remaining 14 cup tomato sauce over the peppers.
Bake until the mixture is heated through, 20 to 25 minutes.
Place the steamed tops back on top of the peppers.
