Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a baking dish by greasing it lightly with cooking spray.
-
Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes from inside. Place the peppers upright in the prepared baking dish.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice, black beans, pineapple, red onion, red bell pepper, mango, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to mix all the ingredients together.
-
Spoon the rice and bean mixture into each of the hollowed-out bell peppers, pressing down gently to pack the filling in.
-
Top each stuffed pepper with shredded mozzarella cheese, dividing it equally among the peppers.
-
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
-
Remove the foil from the baking dish and broil the stuffed peppers for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is golden brown.
-
Carefully remove the stuffed peppers from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.

Garnish the Caribbean Style Stuffed Peppers with fresh cilantro before serving.
