Boiling water

1 pound ground beef

1½ cups cooked rice

2 tablespoons finely chopped celery

2 tablespoons finely chopped onion

¼ cup chili sauce

2 teaspoons salt

¼ teaspoon pepper

1 egg

2 tablespoons shredded Cheddar cheese

Halve peppers lengthwise; remove stems, seeds, and membranes. Add 2

teaspoons salt to enough boiling water to cover peppers; boil peppers 5

minutes. Drain.

Combine other ingredients except cheese; mix well. Fill pepper halves

with this mixture and place in ½ inch of hot water in a baking pan.

cheese over peppers and bake 5 minutes longer, or just until cheese

melts.

for dessert.
