Salt, pepper, garlic powder – about ½ tsp each
Optional sauce: ½ cup tomato sauce or salsa

1. Preheat oven to 375 °F (190 °C).
2. Cook rice; set aside.
3. Heat oil in a skillet; brown ground beef 5‑7 min, seasoning as you go.
4. Stir in corn and cooked rice; mix well.
5. Fill each pepper with the mixture; arrange in a baking dish.

Low‑cost tips – buy ground beef in bulk, use frozen corn, and store‑brand rice; a simple tomato sauce or salsa adds flavor cheaply. Enjoy!
