Cheesy, Stuffed Baked Peppers

This flavorful and cheesy dish is my variation on baked peppers. I use poblano peppers instead of bell peppers and my rich tomato and cheese sauce gives it a ton of flavor. This dish is perfect for meatless Monday's and one of my favorite vegetarian meals to make.

  2. While peppers are baking, make your filling. Cut onion, tomato, and mince garlic.

  4. Add your cream cheese, half of Oaxaca cheese, feta, chicken stock, and seasonings to the pan. Stir for about 2 minutes, mixture should be cheesy and creamy. Set filling aside and let cool for 10 minutes.

  5. Meanwhile, check poblano peppers for roasting quality (blistered and browned throughout) and remove from oven. Place Peppers in your grocery bag and tie. Let the peppers cool down for 8-10 minutes.

  6. Pre-Heat Oven to 450 degrees.

  7. Open grocery bag and using your knife, cut slit down the middle of poblano peppers and remove the internal seeds.
