Instructions
Gather all the ingredients.
Preheat oven to 350F.
Chop onions and set aside.
Cut the tops off the bell peppers, remove the seeds with a spoon and add bell peppers into a baking dish as shown below. Note - The easiest way to do this is to cut the bell peppers about a half-inch from the top and gently pull the top off.
In a small mixing bowl, combine salt, black pepper, garlic powder and mix well.
In a large mixing bowl, add ground beef and combine half the seasoning and mix. Once completed, combine the other half of the seasoning and mix. Note - we add the seasoning in stages to ensure even distribution.
In a large frying pan, add seasoned ground beef and chopped onions over medium-high heat, break apart the meat with a spatula and cook for 3 minutes or until browned.
Once the ground beef is cooked, add to a clean mixing bowl and combine well with feta cheese as shown below.
Stuff the ground beef mixture into the bell peppers from step 3). Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the oven for 25-35 minutes or until preferred bell pepper tenderness.
In the meantime, prepare the sauce by combining mayo and ketchup.
Once bell peppers are done, apply a generous amount of sauce followed by a pinch of optional alfalfa sprouts. Enjoy with a knife and fork!
