Saturday evening our friends had a Thanksgiving dinner, Pot luck style. It was quite a feast. We had turkey three ways: Turduckin, Bacon Smoked turkey, and Deep Fried Turkey. We had 2 types of mashed potatoes, 3 kinds of stuffing, corn, macaroni and cheese, pies, cookies, and all sorts of Thanksgiving goodness. Needless, to say we were sent home with leftovers. On some cooking show Jon and I were watching, one of the hostesses used left overs in stuffed peppers. Genius! So tonight I made my version. Envision a KFC bowl but in a bell pepper.
Ingredients:
- 2 Bell Peppers - I used green
- Thanksgiving leftovers - Ours was Turduckin and Stuffing
- Gravy - I used store bought since it wasn't included in our doggy bag
- Cheese - Freshly grated Parmesan for us
Directions:
- Bring your leftovers to room temperature so everything cooks evenly. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cut off caps of peppers and scrape seeds. Boil for a few minutes to soften them.
- In a bowl mix together leftovers with gravy. Stuff the peppers and place in a casserole dish. Fill bottom of casserole with about 1/4 inch of water. Cook for 20-25 minutes until peppers are tender and ingredients are heated through.
- Top with cheese and return to oven for about 5 minutes until cheese is melted and slightly browned.
Bon Apetit!
