How To Make Stuffed Peppers

Makes 8 servings

What You Need

Ingredients8 medium red, yellow, or orange bell peppers (about 4 pounds)
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
1 tablespoon olive or vegetable oil 
1 small onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound lean ground beef 
1 1/2 cups cooked rice 
1 (15-ounce) can diced tomatoes 
8 ounces shredded Monterey Jack cheese
Equipment9x13-inch baking dish
Cutting board
Knife
Large saucepan
Wooden spoon or spatula
Canning funnel (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the oven: Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat to 375°F. Pour just enough water (about 1 cup) to cover the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish; set aside.
  2. Prepare the peppers: Cut off the tops of the peppers. Remove and discard any seeds and membranes from both the cap and interior. Remove the stems from the tops and roughly chop the pepper caps. Sprinkle the inside of the peppers with the 1 teaspoon salt.
  3. Par-cook the peppers: Place the peppers in the prepared baking dish and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Bake for 10 minutes. Uncover and let cool while you prepare the filling.
  4. Make the filling: Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and chopped pepper tops, season with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute longer. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking the meat up with a spatula as it cooks, until cooked through, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the rice and tomatoes.
  5. Fill the peppers: Evenly divide the mixture among the peppers (use a canning funnel if you have one). Divide the cheese over each pepper.
  6. Bake: Bake uncovered until the peppers are softened, the filling is hot, and the cheese is melted, about 20 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Recipe Notes

  • Make ahead: The peppers can be stuffed and refrigerated up to 1 day ahead. Add 10 minutes baking time.
  • Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Paano nga ba mag budget ng 15,000 sa loob ng isang buwan? Habang nangungupahan ka pa ng bahay? Napaliit ng 15,000 kong tutuusin! Kong mag babayad ka pa ng bahay! Meron ka pang anak na nag aaral.


House Rent 3,000
Water …….. 200
Electricity ….400
Gas………….800
Total ……….4,400


15,000
-4,400
Total 10,600.00


So we already removed the house rent, water, electricity, and gas. And you only have 10,600.00 left.
10,600.00 is 2,650.00 a week budget


Groceries:
Laundry soap 81.00 1100g (surf) a kilo od laundry soap can last 2 weeks or 3 weeks
Coffee 149.00 200g of coffee can last 2 weeks
Coffee mate 95.00 200g of coffee mate can last 2 weeks
Soy sauce  37.50 1L (silver swan) can last a month
Cooking oil 40.00 (palengke) can last 2 week, deep frying is not so healthy so i suggest na paksiw, tinola nalang at ginisang gulay.
total  442.50


First week:
Rice 350 7kilos/50 per kilo 7 kilos can last a week kong medyo malalaki na ang kakain
Meat 300.00 palengke 300 pesos amount of meat is a lot.. Isahog sa gulay gulay, saka na mag puro meat pag nakaluwag luwag.
Fish 300.00 palengke 300 pesos of fish is a lot, wag naman blue marlin, at salmon
Total 950.00


2,650- 1392.50= 1,257.50PHP ang sobra mo a week.


As syou can see i did not include the sangkap sangkap like kamatis, sili, sibuyas, bawang, luya, vegestable cause i will suggest that start a pocket gardening. Mapaka laking tulong po ang pag tatanim sa mga paso, lata. Sa bakanteng lote.


So sa 1,257.50 mo meron ka pang pambaon sa anak mo at pang snack.

This is only a week of my computation. So if you can repeat the same method. In 4 weeks meron ka pa talagan sobra at meron ka pang pang hulog sa alkansiya.

5 SURE WAYS TO SAVE MONEY

5 SURE WAYS TO SAVE MONEY




1. Iwasan ang pa sa Shopping
Kong hindi ka mag sa shopping, malamang hindi ka makaka gastos ngn pera. Maliban nalang kong kailangang kailangan mo.


2. Live within your means
To Live within your means, is to buy only what you can afford. (halimbawa) bagong iPhone kong hindi naman natin kayang bilhin, wag na po nating ipilit. Minsan kasi kaya tayo na lulubog sa utang dahil pinipilit nating bilhin ang isang bagay. Wag ipilit besss baka dumugo


3. Take care of what you have.
Utang na loob, paki ingatan ang ating mga katawan, wag masyadong abusado. Wag masyadong workaholic, dahil kaka trabaho natin nga 18 hours a day para makapag ipon ng pera, ang ending mo sa hospital. Lalong lalo na sa mga taong may bisyo, jusko paki bawas bawasan ng konti ang paninigarilyo, dahil walang magandang mai duulot na maganda sa katawan ang ending mo din ospital, oh pag sinuwerti ka baka sa maliit na kahon ka mag kakasya. (wag naman sana)


4. Wear it out
Whats the last item you actually wore out? Kong ang mga bagay na pidi pa naman magamit, gamitin mo pa. Minsan kasi tayo may isang bagay tayong binili, tapos di na pasok sa uso.. Itatabi na natin, hangang sa inamag na sa tabi.


5. Do it Yourself (DIY)
Usong uso to ngayon ang do it yourself. Kong kaya mo namang gawin ang isang bagay! Bakit di mo gawin? Minsan ang katamaran ang pinapairal. (halimbawa) mag papasko? Gumawa ng mga DIY wreath , Christmas tree. And be more creative. Kong di mo alam YouTube can always help you.
