Sausage Stuffed Green Peppers

4 medium green peppers
1 T. oil
1 lb. ground sausage
1 tsp. dried oregano
1 medium onion, chopped (about ½ cup)
½ C. bread crumbs
1 C. shredded mozzarella
2 C. spaghetti sauce

Cut a thin slice from the top of each pepper. Cut in half lengthwise and discard the seeds and white membranes. Place the pepper shells in a 13x9 baking dish or roasting pan and set them aside.

Heat oil in a 10 inch skillet over med-high heat. Add the sausage and cook until it’s well browned. Add oregano and onion and cook until the onion is tender. Pour off any fat. Stir in bread crumbs, most of the cheese, and half the spaghetti sauce. Spoon the mixture into the pepper shells. Pour the remaining pasta sauce over the peppers and top with remaining cheese. Cover and bake at 400 degrees for 40 minutes or until pepper are tender.
