♥ Chorizo Stuffed Bell Peppers

4 bell peppers (any color you want)
4 pieces chorizo sausage
1 carrot (minced)
1/2 cup onion (chopped)
4 garlic (minced)
1 can diced tomatoes (with juice)
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup uncooked rice (optional)
1 1/2 cup water
1/3 cup mozzarella cheese
1/3 cup cheddar cheese
1 can tomato sauce
salt and pepper to taste
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Place peppers in boiling water and cook it for 5 minutes. Remove and set aside to cool. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large skillet cook chorizo until almost brown. Drain fat, stir in carrots, onions, and garlic. Cook until soft about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in dice tomatoes, worcestershire sauce, rice, and water. cover and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until rice is cooked. But check it once in a while and stir, just so it doesn't burn the bottom of the pan. Remove from heat and add cheese. Place peppers on a backing sheet. Stuff the peppers and add extra cheese on top. pour tomato sauce over the stuffed peppers and baked for 30 minutes.
