For a cheesy twist, sprinkle shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese over the peppers during the last 10 minutes of baking. To add more vegetables, dice the tops of the bell peppers and sauté them with the ground beef. Feel free to substitute ground turkey or sausage for the ground beef. Adjust the amount of Italian seasoning and Worcestershire sauce to your personal preference.
