Brown meat and onion in Canola oil. Add tomatoes, rice, worcestershire sauce, and garlic salt and pepper to taste. Cover and simmer until rice is almost tender, about five minutes. Add cheese. Stuff peppers with mixture, stand upright in baking dish and bake in 350° F oven for 25 minutes. If desired sprinkle with more cheese.
