smokeapig,
Sounds good. If you're interested in trying other fillings, here's one that's a winner:
-Smoked chicken meat (with all these spatchcocked/butterflied chickens flying offa Eggs these days, there's gotta be some leftover chicken meat in many Egger's fridges!)
-Cheese of your choosing, doesn't need to be smooth/processed. Monteray Jack, Havarti, cheddar, mozzarella, provolone...whatever
-Any herbs, spices and/or veggies you want! Garlic, onion, oregano, mushrooms of any variety...whatever needs to be used up from the crisper!
Combine above in the food processor until a chunky paste (add a titch of olive oil if your combination is on the dense side).
Stuff and cook as per your already-posted recipe!
Good eats to ya![p]Qfan
