Cajun Style Stuffed Peppers

4 whole bell peppers (any color)
1 box of cajun rice ( I like Zatterians Dirty or Jumbalia)
1 1/2 cup chopped vege sausage
1 can of white beans
1/2 onion chopped
1/3 pepper chopped
1 jalapeno (optional)
2 eggs (optional)
1 tsp olive oil (or butter)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper

Follow cooking instructions for rice. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut circles around the stems of the whole bell peppers. Remove the stems and seeds to create hollow shells. Place the seeded peppers in an oven safe pan. Bake peppers for 15 to 20 minutes until the peppers soften.

In a medium skillet, saute vege sausage, onions, peppers, and jalapeno. Once browned, mix into cooked rice.

In the same skillet, scramble the eggs. Once scrambled add into rice mixture. Once the peppers are soft and the rice is cooked, fill each pepper with the cajun rice until it is full to the top. Sprinkle salt and pepper on top of the peppers. And cook for another 20 minutes.

There are many variations for stuffed peppers. Some use rice and tomato based stuffing while others are more vegetable or meat heany. I like spicy food, in case you couldn't tell and this is self-taught recipe is my favorite.
