CHEESE STUFFED GREEN PEPPERS

Recipe from: "Modern Approach to Everyday Cooking", American Dairy
Association, 1966


6 medium green peppers
6 slices bacon
1/3 cup chopped onion
3 cups cooked long-grain rice
3 cups (12 oz.) shredded Cheddar cheese
2 tbs. chopped pimiento
1/2 tsp. salt
bacon curls for garnish, optional


Cut off tops of green peppers, remove seeds and membrane. Parboil 5 minutes
in boiling salted water; drain. Cut bacon into small pieces. In a small
skillet, cook bacon with onion until bacon is crisp and brown; drain on
absorbent toweling. In mixing bowl combine bacon and onion, rice, cheese,
pimiento and salt; toss to blend. Spoon into green pepper cups, packing
down
lightly. Place upright in baking dish. Bake 25-30 minutes or until hot.
Garnish each with bacon curl, if desired.

Charlie's note: Being a complete hedonist, I put some extra shredded cheese
on the top after stuffing the peppers and dust lightly with paprika. For me
the extra bacon curl is mandatory.
