Stuffed Green Peppers – Philly Style

November 1, 2015

I have a garden full of green peppers and I’m honestly not sure what to do with them. I was thinking of stuffed green peppers! Bill loves Philly Cheesesteak with Green Peppers, so I thought I would attempt to stuff my peppers Philly Style!

GreenPeppersThe peppers were not very big, which posed a slight problem, they didn’t hold a ton of the good stuff! I loved having a Philly Cheesesteak without the extra calories of bread.  Great alternative!  The cook time is a tough one for a weeknight. At around 60 minutes it’s great for the weekend!

  2. Slice peppers in half lengthwise, remove seeds and ribs. Set aside.
  3. Saute onions, butter, olive oil, garlic over medium heat (add salt and pepper if desired). Saute until onions are caramelized (20-25 minutes).

  5. Overstuff each of the pepper halves with the meat mixture and top with a slice of provolone cheese (add extra if you want..I did!)
  6. Bake for 15-20 min until cheese is golden brown.
