About me: I have always liked to cook, particularly breads, fruits, vegetables, vegetarian, poultry and lamb dishes. After marriage we cooked together progressively more difficult dishes with him doing the meat, grilling and frying, and I did the "dough" and the same type of things I had before. After children we started cooking more simply. After discovering the cause of my frequent migraines was an evolving long list of chemicals and odd ingredients, I began getting back to cooking from basic ingredients, and found I could be well again. I also try to cooking from what I can get in season at the ever present fruit and vegetable stands.

This recipe showcased the Cubanelle pepper which I had not cooked with before. The ingredient amounts were approximate, so I used 5 peppers instead of the 4. I also used turkey sausage over the chicken. It is very simple, but after adding the marinara sauce and parmesan at the end, I briefly reheated until the parmesan cheese melted. My family is used to the milder America's Test Kitchen version of stuffed peppers and were not crazy about the strong pepper flavor. I thought it was a great use of them and the teenager finished them off.
