Traditional stuffed peppers get a Southwestern twist! “The filling also makes a delicious meat loaf that we even like cold as a sandwich with Mexican-blend or cheddar cheese, mayo and salsa.”—Traci K Wynne, Denver, Pennsylvania
Ingredients:
4 medium green, sweet red, orange and/or yellow peppers
1 egg, beaten
1 cup salsa
1-1/2 cups crushed tortilla chips
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 cup minced fresh cilantro
1 red chili pepper, seeded and finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 pound ground beef
1/2 cup shredded mexican cheese blend
sour cream and additional salsa, optional
Directions:
1. Cut tops off of peppers and remove seeds. In a large bowl, combine the egg, salsa, chips, onion, cilantro, chili pepper, garlic and cumin. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well; spoon into peppers.
2. Pour 1-1/2 cups water into pressure cooker. Place peppers on steamer tray in pressure cooker; top with a piece of foil. Close cover securely according to manufacturer’s directions.
3. Bring cooker to full pressure over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-high and cook for 10 minutes.

Remove from the heat; immediately cool according to manufacturer’s directions until pressure is completely reduced.
