Taco Stuffed Peppers make an incredible dinner any night of the week. Tender and colorful bell peppers are filled with a seasoned beef and rice filling and enchilada sauce. Add a sprinkle of cheese and bake until perfectly golden.

Serve these easy peppers with your favorite Mexican or Tex Mex style side dishes… fresh corn tortillas, homemade salsa and a big scoop of guacamole!

Taco Stuffed Peppers

My family loves making classic stuffed peppers or even unstuffed peppers for dinner! This recipe is one of those dishes that draws your family to the table! They are filling, absolutely delicious and they can be prepared ahead of time.

This recipe puts a southwestern spin on a classic stuffed peppers recipe, creating a new family favorite! These stuffed peppers aren’t Mexican at all but are seasoned with a simple spice blend and lots of enchilada sauce for flavors reminiscent of my favorite Mexican-inspired meals.

It’s a satisfying meal that everyone will enjoy.

Tips for Stuffed Peppers

  • Stuffed peppers can be prepared ahead of time, covered and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before baking. If preparing ahead of time, be sure to let the beef mixture cool before filling the peppers.  You may need to add 5-10 minutes to the bake time if these are refrigerated prior to baking.If you’re watching carbs or calories, Cauliflower Rice. You can also replace the cheese with a lighter version.  If you’ve never had cauliflower rice before, you have to try it!  It’s easy to make, delicious, and a great substitute for white rice!
