Well, here is the Stuffed Peppers Recipe.

I’ll do this for 4 peppers, that’s four servings:

Stuffing:

1. 1 cup of Italian Bread Crumbs, basically, you can make these or buy them.

2. 2 eggs

3. 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese, shredded

4. 1/4 cup of olive oil

5. Cubanelle Peppers

Mix that all together. Make sure the mixture is wet. Very wet. If not, add olive oil. Then, core the peppers and stuff them with the mixture. Stuff it as tight as you can. Close to splitting the peppers.

A variation of this, the one I normally serve calls for putting 1 1/2 sausages into the mix. Just dice the sausage up and mix it with the rest of the stuffing.

Heat the oven to 350. Put the peppers on a cookie sheet and cover with olive oil. Cook for about 20 mins and then turn them over. Cook for another 20 mins. They should start getting brown spots of them and the skins should be very wrinkled. When that happens, they are done.

You can also pan fry these. That’s what my grandmother used to do. I bake them allowing me to do 30 of them at one time.

Enjoy.
