You will need about four peppers medium size, green or red, whatever you like. I mix it up with both.One box of Orzo (Orzo is a small pasta) You will only use half a box for the four peppers.One egg, 1/4-1/2 cup of bread crumbs, 1/2 onion , one clove of crushed garlic, some kind of frozen vegges or fresh ,beans if you like, one can of stewed tomatoes, and about 1/2 - 1 cup of either chicken broth of vegge broth. Some grated Italian cheese
Slice peppers in half,length wise, clean out the insides
Boil water for orzo add 1/2 box to boiling water
dice up onion crush garlic,and dice other vegges *for the vegges I used Picksweet frozen mixture of black beans and corn with fresh diced zucchini and onions.
When the pasta is done, strain.
Pour pasta in a bowl let cool for a few minutes
Drain half of the stewed tomato juice into the pasta.
Chop the remaining tomatoes up and save the rest of the juice.
Add egg , vegges and half of the bread crumbs you can also add a tbl of grated cheese
Stir the mixture well.
Have a baking dish on hand.
Fill each pepper half, place in baking pan
Top with the rest of the stewed tomatoes and juice
Pour the broth around the peppers.
Top with rest of the bread crumbs and drizzle some extra virgin olive oil over peppers.
Bake at 325 or 350 for about 40minutes or till peppers are tender.
Serve with a nice fresh mixed green salad and fresh carrots.
