MEDITERRANEAN STUFFED BELL PEPPERS
This dish may be your main entrée served with Pita bread or other Mediterranean flat bread. If it is your main entrée, you may wish to allow two pepper halves per person depending on their appetite size. It is beautiful served as part of a buffet and lends itself well to a Brunch, Lunch or Dinner party. Prepare ahead for those busy days and pop it into the oven 45 minutes before your family dinner time. A side salad goes well with the peppers.
