Stuffed Peppers
We’ve been eating more vegetarian meals lately, in an effort to have a more alkaline (anti-inflammatory) diet. I had a craving for stuffed peppers the other day, and came up with the following tasty concoction:
Ingredients:
- 4 red peppers – halved lengthwise and seeds removed (keep the stems on if you can)
- 4 – 5 ripe tomatoes (diced)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 tbls dried oregano
- olive oil
- pinch of sea salt
Pre-heat your oven to 375. Cut the peppers in half lengthtwise, try to keep the stems on (for presentation purposes, plus they help the peppers keep their shape). Place peppers cut side up in a glass baking dish. Combine remaining ingredients together and fill the peppers. Drizzle with olive oil. Bake for approximately 50 minutes. We had these with brown rice and they were absolutely delish! Next time I may add some fresh basil and kalamata olives.. There are so many possibilities with this recipe.
