1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage; cook and stir until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the sausage to a bowl; set aside. In a separate bowl, combine the Cheddar and mozzarella cheeses; set aside.
3

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cut the tops off the bell peppers; remove and discard the seeds and veins. Parboil the bell peppers in the boiling water for 4 to 5 minutes. Drain; rinse with cold water. Dry; lightly season the insides of the bell peppers with salt and black pepper.
4

Heat oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes and onion; cook and stir, breaking them up and turning periodically, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the sausage, 1/2 of the cheese blend, the eggs, salt, and black pepper. Remove from the heat, mix gently but thoroughly; set aside for 5 minutes. The eggs will not be fully cooked but will finish cooking in the oven.
5

Stir the mixture; gently stuff it into the bell peppers until about 90 percent full, leaving space for the reserved cheese blend. Do not pack tightly. Place the peppers in a broiler-safe baking dish; cover.
6

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Uncover; continue baking until the eggs are set and the bell peppers are tender, about 10 minutes more. Top with the reserved cheese blend. Turn on the broiler and broil until the cheese is browned, 4 to 5 minutes.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products

easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.

The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.

Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.

For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
