For an extra layer of flavor, consider browning the ground beef with diced onion and garlic. Feel free to substitute ground turkey or Italian sausage for the ground beef. If you don't have cottage cheese, ricotta cheese works well as a substitute. To prevent the cheese from browning too quickly, tent the baking dish with foil during the last 20 minutes of baking. These pepper boats freeze beautifully! Allow them to cool completely before wrapping individually and freezing. Reheat in the oven until warmed through.
