AMANDA'S STUFFED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9x13 inch baking dish with aluminum foil.
• In a large bowl, mix together ground beef, bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, garlic, 1/2 cup of the mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup of the Parmesan cheese, egg, onion and mushrooms. Spoon mixture evenly into the seeded bell peppers. Replace tops. Place stuffed peppers in lined baking dish.

ROASTED PEPPER HALVES WITH BREAD CRUMB TOPPING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375° F. Drizzle the bottom of a 13 × 9-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. (If you're using the infused oil, spoon a few of the garlic pieces into the dish as well.) Cut the peppers in half through the stems. Pull out the cores, stems, and seeds and, using a paring knife, cut out the ribs. Arrange the peppers side by side in the prepared dish. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over the peppers and season them with salt.
• Stir the bread crumbs, the remaining 3 tablespoons of the oil, the grated cheese, 2 tablespoons of the parsley, the thyme, and the crushed red pepper together in a small bowl. Divide the crumb mixture among the peppers, making an even coating over the pepper halves. Pour in the stock and cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil. Bake until the peppers are tender, about 20 minutes.
• Remove the foil and continue baking until the crumbs are lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer the peppers to a serving platter, stir the remaining 1 tablespoon parsley into the juices in the baking pan, then spoon the juices over the peppers. Serve the peppers hot or at room temperature.
