Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 poblano peppers
6 ounces cheddar cheese (shredded)
6 ounces mozzarella cheese (shredded)
Oil as needed

Steps:

  • Heat grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grates.
  • Grill the poblano peppers about 10-15 minutes, flipping often, until skins are blackened and charred. Set them into a plastic bag and seal, allowing them to steam and cool.
  • Once cooled, peel away the charred skins. They should come away easily. You do not have to achieve a perfect peel.
  • Slit each poblano pepper from stem to tip and scoop out the innards.
  • Stuff each poblano pepper with 1.5 ounces each of cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese.
  • Set back onto the grill over indirect heat and cook about 6-8 minutes, or until cheese is nice and melted.
  • Serve!

I love southwest-inspired cuisine, but the dishes are often unhealthy. As a dietitian, I try to come up with nutritious twists on recipes, which is how these stuffed peppers were born. -Amber Massey, Coppell, Texas
