Stuffed Hungarian Peppers

Hungry?  Think Hungary.  Stuffed hungarian peppers, that is.  They're delicious and satisfying and easy and quick and everything you want a meal to be!  You can even pick your own poison: sweet or spicy (real spicy).  Hungarian peppers come in these two types - if you're unsure which is which, (they look similar) ask a worker or the farmer (if you're shopping at a local market!) to distinguish the two.  

What you'll need:

• 8 medium sweet or spicy Hungarian Peppers
• 1 lb Mild or Spicy Italian Sausage 
• 1 can Hunt's Basil, Oregano, & Garlic Diced Tomatoes   
• 1/4 cup Reduced Fat Feta Cheese

Fire up the grill and preheat the oven (to 375 degrees).  In addition, you'll need to cut the tops off the peppers to scoop the seeds out and blend the diced tomatoes.  Pour the tomatoes on the bottom of an 8x11 glass pan and set aside for later.  Cut the casing off of the sausage and stuff the peppers.  Place the stuffed peppers on the grill and let char on each side (~2 minutes).  Immediately place in the glass pan and place in the preheated oven.  Cook for 10 minutes and top with the feta cheese.  Enjoy!


If you choose the spicy peppers - beware - they are extremely spicy (for my taste buds, at least).  Use the heated grill to your advantage and grill some veggies for a side dish.  I chose grilled kale and corn on the cob - pick your favorites!
