Unstuffed Pepper Bake

This is an alternative to when you are lazy and don't want to make the stuffed peppers. It is really good! I did not use instant rice, I just made regular rice and added the stuffing on top of that.

1 lb Ground Beef
1/3 C Onion
1 1/2 C Bell Peppers (I did different colors, but whatever was on sale)
2 Garlic Cloves or 1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Pepper
14.5 oz. Can Petite Diced Tomatoes, Drained
1 1/2 C Instant White or Brown Rice
1 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
8 oz Cheddar Cheese, divided
15 oz Can Tomato Sauce (Pretty sure I just used one small can not the whole 15 oz)

Preheat oven to 375. In a large sauce pan over medium heat, saute the beef, onions, bell peppers, and garlic for 10 minutes, or until the beef is browned. Drain off any fat. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the tomatoes, rice, worcestershire sauce, and italian seasoning. Remove from heat, and stir in 1 cup cheese. Spread the mixture in a 9x13 inch pan. Top with tomato sauce and remaining cheese.
Bake uncovered for 20 minutes until cooked through and the cheese is bubbly.
