Tasty twist on beef lasagna and stuffed peppers for a delicious dinner.
Ingredients:
  • 6 medium capsicums
  • 1 large red onion, finely chopped
  • 500g beef mince
  • 500ml (2 cups) tomato passata
  • 400g can borlotti beans, rinsed, drained
  • 40.00 ml chopped fresh continental parsley
  • 2 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • 6 instant lasagne sheets
  • 450g tub fresh carbonara pasta sauce
  • 125g (1/2 cup) fresh ricotta
  • Pinch of grated nutmeg
  • 55g (1/2 cup) coarsely grated mozzarella
  • 20g (1/4 cup) finely grated parmesan
  • Baby rocket salad, to serve (optional)
Instructions:
  • - Preheat your oven to 200C/180C fan forced. - Line a baking dish with baking paper. - Cut the tops off the capsicums and set them aside. - Remove the seeds and white membrane from the capsicums. - Place the capsicums in the prepared dish. - Lightly spray them with olive oil. - Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until they are almost tender.
  • Finely chop the tops of the capsicums while you heat oil in a large frying pan. Sauté onion and chopped capsicum until just softened, then add beef and cook until browned. Stir in garlic until fragrant, then add passata, beans, parsley, and vinegar. Simmer uncovered for 15 minutes until slightly thickened. Finally, season to taste.
  • Spread a layer of 1/4 cup beef mixture at the bottom of each capsicum. Crumble half of the lasagna sheets to fit inside each capsicum. Add another 1/4 cup of beef mixture on top, followed by the remaining lasagna sheets. Finish by topping each capsicum with the remaining beef mixture.
  • Mix together the carbonara sauce, ricotta, nutmeg, and half of the grated cheeses. Stuff the capsicums with the mixture and top with the remaining cheeses. Bake for 35-40 minutes until golden and bubbly. Enjoy with a side of rocket salad if desired.
