- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp garlic powder

Cooking Tips:
- Choose bell peppers that are firm and have a flat bottom so they can stand upright.
- To make the peppers easier to stuff, cut off the tops and remove the seeds and membranes.

2. In a large skillet, cook the ground beef and onions over medium heat until the beef is browned and the onions are soft.
3. Add the green bell pepper, tomato sauce, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to the skillet and stir well to combine.
4. Simmer the mixture for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened.
5. Stuff the bell peppers with the Sloppy Joe mixture and place them in a baking dish.
6. Bake the stuffed peppers for 25-30 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
