Bell Peppers Stuffed with Cabbage and Meat in Tomato Sauce

Juicy bell peppers with vegetables in tomato sauce! I tried this dish at a neighbor's once and loved it, so now I make it at home whenever I can. The usual rice in the filling is swapped for cabbage and other vegetables, which makes the dish even juicier. The tomato paste in the sauce adds a pleasant tang. The peppers come out juicy, colorful, and delicious!

    1. Wash and peel the onions and carrots, then finely chop them or run them through a meat grinder. Use young cabbage if you can — it's more tender — and cut it into thin strips. 2. Mix the chopped vegetables into the ground meat, season with salt, and add seasonings to taste. 3. Wash the bell peppers, cut off the tops, and remove the seeds. Pack the filling into the hollowed-out peppers. 4. For the sauce, sauté one more chopped onion and grated carrot; once the vegetables are soft, add the tomato paste, minced garlic, salt, and the rest of the seasonings. 5. Set the peppers on the bed of vegetables and add water until it comes about partway up the peppers. Cover and simmer over low heat for about half an hour. Sprinkle the finished dish with chopped herbs.
