Instructions:
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish.
Prepare the Bell Peppers: Wash the bell peppers and cut off the tops, creating a lid. Carefully remove the seeds and membranes from the inside of the peppers.
Blanch the Peppers (Optional): For a softer texture, you can blanch the bell peppers before stuffing. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the bell pepper halves and cook for 3-4 minutes. Drain them and let them cool slightly before stuffing.
Sauté the Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, celery, and mushrooms (if using). Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened and fragrant.
