Stuffed Peppers #2

You can use beef as well

Depending on which way the wind blows I either like rice mixed into stuffed peppers or I don’t. On the days the wind blows north-northwest, I make this version. When it blows southerly then this one.

When making these either just cut the top off the pepper and fill it up or slice them in half longways and stuff the halves. They do cook faster cut in half.

Stuffed Peppers with Zucchini

•  2-3 large green peppers
• 1 medium small zucchini
• 1 medium small yellow squash
• ½ – ¾ lb ground pork
• 1 egg
• ¼ cup breadcrumbs
• 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
• 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
• 1 tbsp red pepper flakes
• 1 ½ tsp turmeric
• Salt/pepper

Mix all ingredients but peppers in a large bowl. Stuff mixture into peppers and place each in a greased baking dish. Place in a 350 degree oven and cook until done, about an hour. Slices of cheese can be melted on the top if desired during the last five to 10 minutes of cooking.
