? 2 green peppers.
Cut peppers in half lengthwise. Remove seeds and membranes. Parboil the peppers for four minutes. Drain. Stuff.
Stuffing for four pepper halves:
? 1/2-pound salad shrimp
? 1 egg yolk, slightly beaten
? 1/4-cup ranch dressing
? 1 cup cooked small pasta – such as ziti
? 1/4 cup sliced green onion including green part
? 1/4 cup grated cheese of your choice
Mix all except cheese.
Stuff peppers. Top with cheese. Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes
There are many choices for stuffings, such as a ham or chicken combos, mixtures of hamburger, cottage cheese, cream cheese or seafood. Let your imagination run wild.
This recipe serves eight light eaters, or four for heartier appetites.
