    Jan very flatteringly invited me to offer a stuffed-pepper recipe I recently posted on my blog. :-) For those who don't tolerate hotter peppers, I think a sweet bell pepper would work just as well. The miniature ones available these days would be appetizer-sized, like the jalapenos in the original recipe.

    CHILE PEPPERS STUFFED WITH CHEESE AND SAUSAGE

    1# sausage -- breakfast-style, Italian, Andouille, chorizo -- whatever you like
    8 oz. cream cheese, softened
    1 cup grated cheese -- parmesan, Swiss, provolone, jack, cheddar....
    1# large-ish fresh jalapeño peppers ... or whatever

    Cut the stem-end off the peppers. halve them lengthwise, and remove the seeds. Brown the sausage, add the cheeses and mix till homogenous. Fill the peppers, then bake 20 minutes at 425F (about 220C).

    Enjoy!

    Hi Tess

    Many thanks for posting and sharing your lovely recipe. I'm sure other members will like it too.

    I absolutely agree peppers come in all different shapes, sizes, colours and 'hotness' (is there such a word?)

    But your recipe is simple, quick and delicious.

    Bon Appetit Smile

    All the best Jan

    That looks delicious.

    My problem is that I am a very lazy cook. I love good food, and want to eat well, using fresh and quality ingredients, but I tend to take the simplest route. My version of stuffed pepper or chili would be with a good pate, or cream cheese. Lazy but good.

    Yours is probably 10x nicer! geek

    stuffed chile peppers Mushroom+pate
    Hi Tess good to see you over here again, following on from your comment re. mushrooms filed with pate, this a regular for us.

    This food works well as a starter, snack or a main course served with a salad. Portobello mushrooms filled with pate. Cook in an oven at 200c for 15 minutes. Remove from oven, cover with grated cheddar cheese and cook for a further 5 minutes. Easy, lowcarb and tastes great.

    All the best Jan

    Mmmm, those portobellos look GOOD! Large 'shrooms are my favorite base, when I get an urge for the flavor of pizza -- no crust required.

    Large flat mushrooms are great on the BBQ too-simply smear the insides with a generous amount of butter-wrap tightly in foil and bung the parcel on and let them do there stuff whilst your cooking the meat or whatever-Lovely and moist with a slight smoky taste and go great with some steak or chicken.

    big fiat mushrooms are lovely baked in oven with garlic and olive oil then topped with griddled halloumi and served with salad. I like mine liberally sprinkled with hot pepper sauce.

    Yes I have Smile  Boursin cheese is so handy to have and whether it's the one with herbs or black peppers it makes mushrooms or peppers taste great.

    I stuffed my previous night's leftovers (veg, mixed beans, feta, herbs) into a bell pepper and splashed some Nandos sauce on it last night after reading this thread Very Happy

    This is a very simple recipe for stuffed mushrooms which I enjoy. Not keen on blue cheese so I use feta instead.
