Tonight, I made stuffed peppers. I sauteed onions, garlic, hot Italian sausage & spinach. Let it cool. Then stuffed the mixture with the peppers. I cooked these inside of a cast iron skillet (mainly to hold the peppers upright), indirect at 400F for approx 45 minutes. I sprinkled a little bit of cheese on top towards the end. They were awesome-imageimageimageimage

    Man those look good. Love the use of the skillet for a pepper holder.  Just fill the extra space with corn and onion ;). 

    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    Still haven't figured out how to make homemade ice cream in the egg... :) Nice cook Craig! I need to do stuffed peppers. Wonder if shredded leftover chicken would work for the protein? :-?

    Shredded chicken would be awesome!! Almost like a fajita pepper. Try it!

    I'm going to have to try that, maybe with some rice mixed in as a bit of a binding agent.  Excellent pics!

    Back in the day my mom used to make stuffed peppers...  But those were just stuffed with rice and ground beef, with some tomato sauce over the top.  Yours look much better.  :D

    Yes, I got about 20 small peppers in a bag. I had extra room in the skillet so I threw in a couple ears of corn and a sweet onion. They were EGGcellent!

    Nice cook & your pictures are great.  I cant get enough of the small bagged peppers, so good . . . I love to just char the crap out of them, slice in half and serve with goat cheese & reduced balsamic.

    @Big_Green_Craig Here's what I tossed together. Filling was leftover chicken breast, homemade Fajita seasoning, sauteed onions, peppers, tomatoes, and rice. A little cheese on top and grilled them til they were done. My kids don't like cooked peppers, so the rest of the filling went in the skillet for tortilla filling.

    Was really good, thanks for the idea. No plated pics, these went quickly and we were in a rush getting ready for T-Ball.

    Do you think you could do this using Hatch/Anaheim peppers cutting off the end and stuffing and keeping upright?
