Susan Kakuk - Plymouth, Minnesota
Bake-Off® Contest 36, 1994
Raising a bumper crop of green peppers in her Minnesota garden inspired Susan Kakuk to create this south-of-the-border meatless filling for her
family. The flavorful stuffed peppers can be baked in a conventional oven or microwaved.


   PEPPERS
   4 large green bell peppers, halved, seeded
   2 tablespoons water
   
   FILLING
   2 cups cooked rice
   1 cup (4 oz.) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
   1/2 cup dairy sour cream
   1 (15-ounce) can spicy chili beans, undrained
   1 (11-ounce) can vacuum-packed whole kernel corn with red and green peppers, drained
   
   GARNISH
   1/2 cup picante salsa
   8 tortilla chips
   Fresh cilantro, if desired


MICROWAVE DIRECTIONS: Place peppers and water in ungreased 13 x 9-inch (3-quart) microwave-safe dish or divide peppers and water between two 8-inch (1 1/2-quart) microwave-safe dishes. Cover with microwave-safe plastic wrap; microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes. Drain.

In medium bowl, combine all filling ingredients. Spoon heaping 1/2 cup of filling into each pepper half. Cover; microwave 13 x 9-inch dish on HIGH for 15 to 16 minutes or until peppers are tender. (Microwave each 8-inch dish for 6 to 8 minutes.) Top each pepper with 1 tablespoon of salsa, a tortilla chip and cilantro.

CONVENTIONAL DIRECTIONS: Heat oven to 350°F. In medium bowl, combine all filling ingredients. Spoon heaping 1/2 cup of filling into each pepper half. Place filled peppers in ungreased 13 x 9-inch (3-quart) baking dish or pan. Omit water. Cover with foil; bake at 350°F. for 50 to 60 minutes or until peppers are tender. Garnish as directed above.
