These stuffed peppers are very tasty. I cut them top to bottom. They cook faster and look lovely. It is nice if you can mix red, yellow & Green peppers If you wish top them with some breadcrumbs mixed with parmesan cheese. They really don't need it but it gives a nice finishto them. I like golden raisins but dark are fine too. They look lovely on a buffet table. Use any type of pepper you like. Anaheim are really peppy or the long extra sweet red are good too. If you use the long peppers cut the bake time to 20 minutes. Their skin is thinner and needs less bake time
