How to Play Around with This Recipe

How to Play Around with This Recipe | Chicken Parm Stuffed Peppers

  • The Cut: You can cut the tops of the bell peppers instead of cutting them lengthwise. Just take the cores and clean the seeds off. Now you can pretty much stuff anything in the middle. Remove the stem from the top portion and use it as a lid.
  • The Stuffing: Instead of using chicken, you can use ground meat and other vegetables instead of cheese and tomato sauce. How about using chili as a stuffing instead of the parmigiana you see here?
  • The Broth: You can also use another broth to steam the peppers with so instead of chicken, you can use beef broth or vegetable broth.

 

There you go, a nice healthy meal you can easily whip up in the kitchen–one that isn’t a steak or something you have to grill for a change. You can pack it away to eat at work or wolf it down post-gym. It’ll serve nicely as a post-recovery meal.
