Preparation

  • Preheat the oven at 400°F.
  • Place the peppers in a big cooking pan, open side up, and drizzle with some olive oil. Season with salt and pepper then cook in the oven for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat a drizle of olive in a big pan at medium temp. Add the leek and garlic then cook for 3-4 minutes while stirring often.
  • Add the mushrooms, zucchinis and Italian spices along with another drizzle of olive oil then stir well. Season with salt and pepper and cook for about 5 minutes. Add the meat and cook for another 6-7 minutes or until cooked. Break into small chunks.
  • Drain fat off, add the parmesan cheese and stir well. Remove from heat.
  • Remove peppers from oven and make 2 small incisions at the base with the tip of a knife. This will allow the juice to flow out a little!
  • Stuff the peppers with the incredibly good mix and cover with cheddar cheese. Place in the oven and cook for 10 minutes then crank to BROIL until the cheese is nice and golden!
