How to freeze stuffed peppers for the winter.
You will need:

To prepare stuffed sweet peppers, take any amount of vegetables and increase the remaining ingredients proportionally. Wash the fruits thoroughly. Cut off the stems and pick out the seeds from the inside.
Do this very carefully so that the peppers remain intact. You can use any minced meat for the filling – beef, chicken, pork, turkey. Or make a mixture of two types of meat.

Wash and peel the onion and carrot. Dice the onion and grate the carrot on a fine grater. Fry the vegetables in vegetable oil. Set aside to cool. Pour 2 cups of water over the rice and cook until half-cooked. Set aside to cool. During this time, the cereal will absorb all the water.

Mix the minced meat with rice, carrots and onions. Add salt and pepper. You can, if desired, add other spices – dry garlic, Italian or Provencal herbs, etc. Mix the mass thoroughly. Pour in a little cold water.

Fill the peppers with the filling using a teaspoon. Do not tamp too much, although lay it out tightly. Place in a container so that the peppers do not touch each other too much and leave in the freezer for 1 day.
Then take out and transfer the semi-finished products into freezer bags, close tightly and return to storage. If you have a regular bag, just tie it tightly.
If necessary, take out a certain number of peppers and bring to readiness, pouring in tomato juice. That’s it – a delicious summer dinner is ready!
