Eliminating a lot!

One of my nephew's is on an elimination diet.  He cannot have gluten, eggs, dairy, soy, tree nuts and other stuff that I can't remember.  I thought eating gluten-free was hard, but this is really challenging.  But I am up for this challenge!  Today, in honor of Brent, here's a recipe that I hope he gets to try and I do hope he enjoys! 

Stuffed Bell Peppers

About 4 red, yellow, or orange bell peppers.  I personally do not like the green one's and I believe these are much sweeter in taste.
1 pound of some kind of meat.  Whether it is chopped chicken or ham or beef. Cooked of course. 
1 cup of rice, cooked.
1/2 cup of salsa

Basically you will cut the tops off of the bell peppers and scoop out the insides.  Combine the cooked meat, the cooked rice and the salsa in a bowl until it is well mixed.  Fill each bell pepper with the meat mixture.  It may only fill about 2/3 of the way in order to get it into each of them.  Place them in a deep baking dish so they stand up and bake for 10 minutes at 350.
