4 large bell peppers

1/2 cup finely chopped white onion

3/4 cup shredded cheddar-jack cheese mix

3/4 pound shrimp, deveined, peeled, and sliced lengthwise

# Instructions:
01 -
Turn the oven on to 350°F to heat up. Follow the package directions to make the rice.

Slice the tops off the peppers and dice them up. Toss the stems and keep the peppers ready for filling.
03 -
In a skillet, heat the olive oil and cook the diced pepper tops, mushrooms, and onion until they soften—about 5-7 minutes.

Toss the shrimp into the pan with veggies. Let them cook for 2-3 minutes, just enough to turn pink.
05 -
Combine the cooked rice with the shrimp and veggie mix. Then spoon the mixture into the peppers.

Put the stuffed peppers in a baking dish. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil, sprinkle cheese on top, and bake another 5-10 minutes until the cheese is gooey.
