SAUTEED ZUCCHINI WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES
A great side dish to pair up with beef, chicken or fish. Love the flavors in this dish - simple but full of flavor. I did add a clove of garlic to the original recipe just because I thought it would really give it a great background flavor. Tried and posted for ZWT7.

Tips:
- Choose the right peppers: Bell peppers are the most common type of pepper used for stuffing, but you can also use poblano peppers, Anaheim peppers, or even jalapeño peppers if you like spicy food.
- Prepare the peppers properly: Cut the tops off the peppers and remove the seeds and ribs. You can also parboil the peppers for a few minutes to soften them.
- Make sure the filling is cooked through: The filling should be cooked before you stuff the peppers. This will help to prevent the peppers from becoming soggy.
- Don't overstuff the peppers: Overstuffed peppers will be difficult to cook evenly and may fall apart.
- Bake the peppers at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy crust on the peppers and prevent them from becoming soggy.
- Serve the peppers immediately: Stuffed peppers are best served hot out of the oven.
Conclusion:
Stuffed peppers are a delicious and versatile dish that can be made with a variety of fillings. They are perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make stuffed peppers that your family and friends will love.
