Stuffed Bell Pepper

There is something always more appealing about having similar foods done differently! Just like this recipe for example, you could quite easily just have all the ingredients chopped and put in a pan BUT cook it inside the pepper and WOAH minds are blown, mouths are watering! This just shows how powerful the visual appearance can be with it making it so much more appetising.

A whole meal stuffed into a little holder making it easily portable and trapping in all those tongue tantalising flavours.

The more and more I cook I find what I really want is food you can cook quickly, gets more than one serving out of but most of all carries well. Something you can take to work or just on a day out and tastes just as amazing as it did when you pulled it out the oven all hot and sizzling. Food that despite being cold wows and captivates not only your eyes and taste buds but also those of the people around you!
And this one really does that, simple yet different and basic yet tasty!

DONE

Soft yet still juicy bell pepper get’s bitten into and reveals a succulent and juicy Italian infused inner that makes you feel like you might as well be sitting on your veranda overlooking the ever rolling grassy fields of northern Italy and finished off with the creamy feta that just makes you feel all happy inside

Enjoy it how you like and serve with veg or a salad possibly even have it on its own as a fast nutritious snack.
