Having a huge crop of banana peppers, and the ingredients on hand, this recipe emerged. The stuffing mixture also makes a nice dip if put in a 350* oven for 10 mins. Ingredients:
4 large banana peppers |
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese |
1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese |
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese |
3 tablespoons mayonnaise |
1/2 cup shredded basil |
2 sun-dried tomatoes, chopped |
salt and pepper |
1 cup homemade marinara sauce |
Directions:
1. Mix together the feta , mozzarella and parmesan cheese. add the mayonnaise, basil, sun dried tomatoes and salt and pepper to season, mix well.
2. Cut the tops off the banana peppers, (reserving the tops) and scoop out the seeds, being careful not to split open the sides.
3. Using a tsp and your finger ( this part can get quite messy ) stuff the peppers with the cheese mixture.
4. In a 8 x 8 baking dish spread the marinara sauce onto the bottom.
5. Put the peppers on top of the sauce, replacing their tops, wedging the peppers against the sides ( in the hope that the tops stay in place keeping the stuffing inside ).
6. If you have any excess stuffing mix, spread over the tops of the peppers.
7. Bake in a 350* oven for 30 minutes.
