Healthier Stuffed Peppers

My spouse loves stuffed peppers since I made two discoveries. First, don't parboil the peppers. The peppers stay tender-crisp and keep more flavor and vitamins. Two, using crushed tomatoes as the base for the sauce. The sauce stays creamier and more full-bodied.I have diet restrictions so I use lean (90% or more) to reduce saturated fat, brown rice for a nuttier taste and nutrition, and egg substitute. My spouse doesn't realize that he is following my diet.
