Stuffed Peppers

I made stuffed peppers for the first time ever b/c Jon had mentioned how much he loved them. There is a huge amount of stuffed pepper recipes out there, so I kind of just made up my own out of several. Here it is!

6 bell peppers
1/2 cup uncooked white long rice
1/2 cup water
1 can tomato soup
1 can tomato sauce
1 tbsp Italian salad dressing
1 onion, chopped
1 lb hamburger or ground sausage
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
shredded Italian mix cheese
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 can diced tomatoes

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut off tops and remove seeds from peppers. Boil in salted water for 10 minutes. Place in a 9x13 glass baking dish, open side up. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook rice in water. Brown hamburger and onions. When done, drain fat and return to pan. Add tomato soup, diced tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, rice,and water. Simmer for 10 minutes. Spoon mixture into peppers. Mix can of tomato sauce with Italian dressing and pour over peppers. Bake 25 minutes. Top with cheese and bake another 10 minutes.
