What to do with green peppers?

i've seen people put tofu in them!

and i mean, i'm really boring, but i just eat green peppers like apples :P

Well, I loathe green peppers, but I love to cook and try interesting recipes. I replace green peppers with either red bell peppers or poblano peppers, which might change things up for you. Also, regarding fillings, you might google "Italian Stuffed Peppers" or "Vegetarian Stuffed Peppers". Tons of recipes out there. On a 2 minute google search I even found one with turkey and quinoa! Here's a tasty-sounding one I found for the Italian version: http://www.grouprecipes.com/117216/italian-style-stuffed-peppers.html
Happy cooking!

The last I made was with rice and skinned chicken breasts cut up and cooked for a while in Buffalo sauce.
Did cover with cheese and bleu cheese dressing.

Yummy! You can boil some potatoes then raost them with cauliflower,broccoli carrots and turnips. Spray with non fat cooking spray and sprinkle on your favorite seasonings. Put a head of garlic ,a vidalia onion in some foil with cooking spray and some fresh herbs or perfect pinch seasonings. When the veggies are fork tender mash together with the carlic and onion.(Just squeeze the garlic out of the head) Season to taste ands stuff into the peppers. Bake at 350 for 1/2 hr or until the peppers are tender. You can top with tomatoe sauce or something but I think that is disgusting!!! Lol

I'm vegetarian, my mom makes stuffed green peppers with meatless taco beef, it adds more spice. So it's the vegetarian meat, tomatoes, rice and sometimes she adds other vegetables like grated carrots. It's my second favorite food! So good.
