Happy Valentines Day!!!! I hope you all have a fantastic day and enjoy eating your food today!!!  This recipe is one of my favorites or I left it till the end!! If you get the chance to make it I hope you enjoy it!

Mexican Stuffed Bell Peppers

1 pound ground beef
1 chopped onion
1 can tomatoes with green chilies
1 hand full chopped cilantro
1/2 can black olives sliced
4 yellow bell peppers
2 tablespoons chili powder
1/2 tablespoon garlic salt
1 tablespoon cumin
1/2 tablespoon red pepper
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon oregano
1 tub fresh salsa

Guac:
3 avocados
1 teaspoon garlic powder

Preheat oven to 350. Brown beef with the seasoning. While it is browning chop the white onion and cilantro. Add onion and cilantro to the beef and saute another 5 minutes. Half and seed the bell peppers. Take one half bell pepper and dice it. Add diced bell pepper, canned tomatoes, and olives to the meat mixture. Spray a glass pan with olive oil and place bell peppers open side up. Push the meat mixture to one side for the pan and tilt it so that any access liquid drains to the other side. Spoon out any excess liquid, fill each pepper with the meat mixture. Bake for 30 minutes. While they are baking, mash up the avocados and garlic powder. When they are done scoop some guacamole on top and use salsa as desired.

Last day of the challenge!!! I would just like to tell each of you how fantastic you have done with the challenge. This is truly a hard thing to do and the fact that you took the challenge is truly inspiring!!!! I hope you continue your journey....Congratulations to you all!!!!!!!!!!!
