  • Add marinara directly to the skillet and mix with a wooden spoon.
  • Scoop an even amount of mixture into each pepper. This recipe fills exactly 6 halves of large bell peppers.
  • Bake for 20 minutes at 350 f.
  • Remove pan from oven and top peppers with cheese.
  • Place peppers back in the oven, and bake for 10 more minutes for firmer peppers or 30 minutes for softer peppers. (you will want to delay this cheese step until the last 10 minutes of your longer baking time if you opt for softer peppers.
  • Enjoy warm!
