Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
4 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded
1 tablespoon dried onion, minced
8 ounces tomato sauce, divided
1/4 cup vegetable broth or 1/4 cup beef broth
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon white vinegar
4 cubanelle peppers (or 4 Italian frying peppers)
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided

Steps:

  • Drain and rinse beans; place in a mixing bowl and lightly mash with a fork so they are still chunky.
  • Stir in cheese, dried onions, and 2 tablespoons tomato sauce (just enough to moisten) and set aside.
  • In a saucepan, over medium low heat, combine remaining tomato sauce, vegetable or beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, brown sugar and vinegar; cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer while preparing peppers.
  • Slice peppers lengthwise, leaving stems intact, but removing seeds and membranes.
  • Stuff each half with bean mixture and season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a skillet with one tablespoon oil, over medium high heat, and place stuffed peppers, in batches, stuffing side down and cook 5 minutes.
  • Flip peppers, and cook until peppers are browned, about 5 minutes; repeat with remaining peppers adding oil as needed.
  • Pour sauce over peppers to serve; season with additional salt and pepper, if desired.

I followed the recipe exactly and the stuffed peppers turned out terrible. The filling was dry and the peppers were undercooked.

These stuffed peppers were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

These stuffed peppers were a great way to use up some leftover vegetables. I had some zucchini, mushrooms, and bell peppers that needed to be used, and this recipe was the perfect solution.
