1 cup cooked long-grain white rice

Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
¼ tsp black pepper
1 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Chef's tip
Use low-moisture mozzarella and shred before measuring.

For serving

2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Finely dice the reserved pepper tops, discarding the stems, and set aside.
2
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the diced onion and diced pepper tops and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
