CHILI CHEESE GRILLED AND STUFFED BELL PEPPERS

Steps:

• Begin by browning the chicken with a bit of salt and pepper. Add the cooked rice and the broccoli, lightly sauté.
• Add the chili and stir well. Continue to heat through till broccoli is slightly tender.
• Meanwhile, cut off the tops of your bell peppers and remove the seeds. If necessary, cut the bottoms in a small, thin line if needed for them to stand upright.
• Now stuff your peppers! Do about a tablespoon at a time, sprinkling with small pieces of the VELVEETA® all throughout, between each tablespoon of filling - using about 4 tablespoons.
• Top with a few more slices, reserving about 2 ounces to top it with while on the grill.
• Heat your grill on a medium/low heat, being sure to brush the racks with oil so they don't stick. If using charcoal, heat your coals on one side of the grill, and place the peppers on the cooler half. The heat should be about 300 degrees. Place the tops on the top rack, and let cook for about 30 minutes.
• Since the filling is precooked, you're just waiting for the peppers to cook and the VELVEETA® to melt.
• About 15 minutes into the grill time, add the remaining 2 ounces of VELVEETA®, then cover with the tops to help it melt.
• The peppers are done once they are mostly soft, but still firm enough to hold their shape. If cut into, they are no longer crisp, instead they're soft, and pliable.
• Serve with toasted bread. I just cut a French loaf in half and buttered it, then added it to the grill about 5-10 minutes before the peppers were done.
• Enjoy!
