Stuffing Stuffed Peppers

This was a crowd-pleaser at a recent dinner party with friends.  So much so that I didn't have a chance to get a photo :)  This would also make a great meal for the day after Thanksgiving to use up that extra stuffing!!

Ingredients:
6 large red bell peppers
4 c stuffing *
2 c gravy
Shredded gruyere cheese
Olive oil
Salt and Pepper


1.  Preheat oven to 375.
2.  Cut the top off each pepper, remove stem, seeds and ribs from inside.
3.  Drizzle olive oil in each pepper and season with salt and pepper.
4.  In a large bowl, toss together the stuffing and gravy.  Spoon mixture into peppers until full.
5.  Place peppers in a greased baking dish and bake for 15-20 minutes.
6.  Remove dish from the oven and top each pepper with cheese.
7.  Turn the oven to broil and put peppers back in for 2-3 minutes.



* I used this version with ground Italian sausage added in.  You could use any stuffing recipe you like and consider adding in leftover turkey instead of the sausage.
