Thoughts on stuffed peppers?
It's food. Great thread. Yawn.
Not worth the effort also bell peppers are fucking expensive now
>>22099954Make a better thread then instead of bitching, you major league fag.
>>22099955>effortlazy queer
>>22099961The female brain in incapable of absorbing criticism. I'm sure it would be quite the chore to make a better thread than asking strangers how they feel about random foods with no opinion of my own contributed. Brown-eyed retard.
>>22099966I cooked a lot of performant bullshit in my 20s. In my 30s I just want good tasting low effort slop.
>>22099955What effort? You fill a pepper with bullshit dude. They're one of the easier dishes to make. That being said they're mediocre but nice as a last minute dinner
Can't say I've ever had one I liked
>>22099954>Complaining about food in a food forum.
>>22099952They're good but I'd rather stuff you're mom's muffin with my meat if you catch my drrift.
>>22099973>meat-filled muffinThat doesn't sound very appetizing desu.
>>22099975Your skills are lacking that's why it doesn't sound appetizing little boy.
>>22099971>also makes low effort trashNew kids usually do. The kind of new kid who still has a 4chan folder. Fucking zoomtard.
How about stuffed chili peppers?
>>22099982How about no.
>>22099984you really hate peppers. Don't you?
>>22099988Not really. Just you.
for me? it's bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers
>>22099952My mom used to make these all the time. I got sick of them.
>>22099999>99999no wonder she got sick of you
>>22100004>t.
>>22099952I made some last night and they were yummy.
>>22099977You’re angry because you’re old and your time is almost up. Don’t spend it arguing and go make some memories, champ.
>>22099952The less the pepper is cooked, the better they are. Mushy wilted pepper that falls apart when you try to cut into it is just sad.
>>22100030any tips?I don't want it to just be rice but I also don't really want meat either.
>>22100114rice, ground beef, onions, a few canned tomatoes, your choice of 'erbs and spices, perhaps garlic. also cut length wise not horizontal, since peppers are expensive now. top with cheese if you want.
>>22100128I’m vegan so I just stuff the bell pepper with more bell pepper
>>22100131then just add onions, peppers, tomatoes, rice, etc. maybe eggplant or some shit. i really recommend eating meat for nutrition's sake
>>22100139its inaccurate, irrational feelings about agriculture, the food chain, and reality outweigh its health and longevity
>>22100109You want it just cooked enough so that the pepper still has a bit of bite but peels freely away from the skin. >>22100114I would try grinding broccoli and cauliflower and maybe adding some shredded carrots or peas with the rice a bit dryer with some veggie stock mixed in. The seasoning is super important here. Oregano and parsley are key, of course the aforementioned garlic and onion. But don't forget things like a dash of chili powder or a few drops of Tabasco. Really just season it how you like. I do feel like if you soaked or seasoned that ground broccoli and cauliflower correctly it could be a decent substitute for the meat in the pepper.
>>22100178I forgot the tomato but that's totally a key ingredient. Also, when it's done, dip it in soy sauce. It's so good.
Every time I've had them they've been watery and not that amazing.The meat would taste better browned and crispy instead of boiling in juices.
>>22100070Whatever you have to tell yourself to not think about your job prospects, I suppose.
>>22099952I always liked them, but there is a fine balance to be had. Too dry and it ruins the taste of the whole thing, too watery and it also ruins the taste by making everything soggy. It's a very versatile food that is somewhat underrated.>>22100030>cheese and bacon bits That's going a little too far but it looks delicious.
it's a dish that looks amazing but taste mid
>>22100139it’s just so much easier than dealing with all those different ingredients and blah blah blah…just cut the top half off your pepper, chop it up, and stuff it in the bottom half.
>>22100070>You’re angry because you’re old and your time is almost up.>your time is almost up.>newfag zoomer retard thinks people leave 4chanYou're here forever, retard.>.t been here since 2010
>>22099952My Ont used to make suffed peppers that were fucking awful, tasted like vomit. And then I was at my friend's house once and his mum made stuffed peppers and they were awful and tasted like literal vomit again.Many years later i finally made them myself and they were de-fucking-licious. Goes to who how personalizing your recipes is important.Sadly I never took a pic of them, but enjoy my stuffed mushies
>>22099952Looks and taste good
>>22100220imagine your middle aged dad on the internet calling strangers “newfag”it’s bonechilling
>>22100185Chef John's stuffed pepper casserole dispenses with the actual stuffing part, but it's probably got the flavor you want. I liked it a lot.
>>22100219>it's just so much easier to make baked peppers with nothing elseyeah, no shit
>>22099952peak suburban housewife food
>>22100190What a strange way to project your own weirdly specific problem onto an internet argument. Either way, kys boomer boy
>>22100233There is no dish using an edible component as a bowl that isn't improved by putting all the ingredients in an actual bowl.
>>22099954So is this *unzips F-hole*
>>22100225>imagine participating in board culture on a boomer board
>>22100390Well, almost true...
>>22099952Love those. I fill them up with the same kind of sause I use for bolognese pasta and the bell peper taste along with the meat juices is the best.
>>22100390You still need to place those on a bowl to prevent the grease flow of the first bite/cut
>>22100498That's a plate, friend.
>>22100261I'm administrator of a multimillion dollar business. You're a zoomer entering a non-existent job market. Have fun.
>>22099952Love em, what's your favourite stuffing?
>>22099952Gross
>>22099952I probably hate these more than anyone here. Peppers taste much better when prepared the way you would for a fajita, rice is my least favorite carb to pair with beef or tomato.
>>22100030Looks a little monstrous but tasty nonetheless
>>22099999Checked
>>22099952Oh yeah, these are popular at our office potlucks. Love em.
>>22100128>also cut length wise not horizontal, since peppers are expensive now.what did he mean by this
>>22100571lukewarm soggy stuffed peppers sounds vile
>>22100561kek
>>2209995567 cents at Walmart.
>>22100594He was probably talking about buying from a local grower instead of the goyslop junction that's destroyed local businesses in your community.
>>22100716Local growers near me are absurdly priced and the produce is shit. I suspect they are just buying shit from Aldi and selling it by the side of the road.
>>22099952My mom does good ones. I need to get her recipe before she croaks
>>22100731>look at all these excuses I have for not doing the right thingOK. Whatever.
It's fine just as long as you don't stuff it with unhealthy food such as rice.
>>22100754Dumb ketard.
>>22100757>fat can't refute>resorts to name-calling Fats are so pitiful.
>>22100502That’s why you’re alone, poor, and starting arguments on the food section of a dead forum. You’re a loser. Again, refer to the last sentence in my previous message.
Better to split em down the middle and stuff both sides, then put them under the broiler so that the meat and cheese are done and hot while the pepper itself remains crisp for contrast. People who overcook the peppers till they're soft are fucking stupid.
>>22100748I do what benefits me. Spend $600 on a grapefruit so you can get a sticker saying it's carbon based. I'll continue to enjoy life.
>>22100765You could've succeeded too if you spent less time thinking about cartoons and dick.
>>22100833>the death of my community doesn't affect me if I get 10 cents offWhite trash mindset. Enjoy getting robbed by your neighbors kids.
>>22099952Retarded and pointless
More peppers for lunch!
>>22100887enough about you
>>22100869Imagine living in such a pissant area that people selling out of their gardens is the difference between survival and starvation.
>>22099952if you put rice in them you’re a faggot
Poblanos are cheaper and have more flavor
>>22101024Poblanos have a different flavor but it's not better than green bell peppersI can respect preferring them but I would never
We do stuffed marrows. I prefer them to peppers, but the concept is similar.IMHO, don't add rice. Just plain meat/eggs/cheese works better, especially if they are the main attraction on the plate with a carb on the side.I can understand adding rice, if they are more of a side dish.
>>22100738the fuck kind of weird peppers are those?
>>22100993>the unprincipled zoomer demonstrates it againSlippery slopes are how we got here.
>>22099952I don't like cooked bell peppers in general. They're just mushy and don't taste very good.
>>22100748Stores that stock non-locally grown things employ people in your community so you are hurting someone in your community either way. Supporting a service-based economy instead of a produce-based one isn't right or wrong but whatever makes you feel better than the other guy I guess.
>>22101037>whiteknighting for another manDad didn't stay?
>>22101005pure sausage is best
>>22101037>his schizo paranoid theory is fact now
>>22101024if they had a better flavor they wouldn’t be cheaper
>>22101041>whiteknighting another manJust insulting the retard I replied to.>>22101044He's just a sanctimonious fag. If that's you then you're just a sanctimonious fag.
>>22101028>don't add rice.You can have some rice in the mix, but you need to prepare it right. Cook the rice slowly in milk instead of water, before mixing with meat. And don't use too much rice.
What are our thoughts on orzo & sausage? I've never made stuffed peppers and want to try them with what I have on hand.
>>22101257How about make it with what you got dum dum and report back.
>>22101257I use half ground beef and half italian sausage
>>22100799And so I did. This is after stuffing with my filling but before the cheese topping.
>>22101380The topping, mozzarella on top and inside the filling too.
>>2210138115 minutes in the oven so the pepper is still crisp but not raw, then another few minutes under the broiler for some browning of the cheese.
>>22101383And the cross section. A lot of garlic in this, about 5 cloves. Overall very nice, got some good leftovers for tomorrow too.
>>22101383>>22101388 looks pretty good. Would eat
>>22101380>>22101381>>22101383>>22101388ho hum, basic fucking bitch
>>22101405ty, I'd give you one of the peppers if you were over>>22101411I'll stuff you buddy
>>22101411post food you cooked you angry tranny
>>22101420I would but I don't want to make you cry little sissy effeminate "male."
>>22000000I wonder
Stuffed bell peppers is a secondary, semi-leftover, "easy" meal for me. (like fried rice, zuchini boats, or leftovers burritos)I make it a day or two after I've made meat sauce for Spaghetti. I mix all the leftover meat sauce with some rice, put it in bell peppers with cheese, and bake them in the oven.Easy dinner with minimal preptime.
>>22101411better than you can do
>>22099952It's super yummy but I agree they're not really worth it with how expensive bell peppers are now, better off to buy a bag of those sweet peppers and just make a casserole. If keto I guess it makes sense. I ate them for calorie deficit foods but it was more meme than anything.
>>22101450Bell peppers are less than a dollar man. If anything the soaring price of ground beef would be what makes it not worth it to do this recipe anymore.
They're fine to eat, but I never make them. Not something I'd seak out.
Do you brown the beef before putting it in the peppers?
>>22101450I just bought a bell pepper for 89 cents, if that is too much for you then you have way bigger problems.
>>22101474Yeah you get your filling ready and have your peppers hollowed out as you like, then you put the cooked filling in and the time in the oven is for cooking the pepper and topping to your liking. If you make the filling ahead of time and it's not hot when it goes in the oven then the time in the oven also warms the filling again. Makes them very convenient as a prepare-ahead dish.
>>22099952I do this with leftover taco meat
Check
>>22101383>pepper is still crisp gross.
>>22101478Doesn't this overcook the meat?
Love me a 'fed 'per.
>>22100738what're those little dark pebble bits? i know i've seen them before, they're like barley bulbs or chia seeds or something like that
>>22101642it's ground meat reheating in a moist pepper, there is no overcooking it, it's not a steak
do bacon wrapped jalapenos filled with cream cheese count as stuffed peppers? cause me and the boys fucks with that and they cost like 50c each to make
>>22101775forgot the image I took from earlier
>>22099952I should call those blood related sisters…
i hate this guy's recipe, seems overly complicated:https://www.chilipeppermadness.com/recipes/stuffed-peppers/
>>22101775>me and the boys fucks with thatThe gayest post I've read all week.
>>22101884I liked it :3
>>22101776at least trim off the stems, man
>>22099955This. Fucks sake>10 dollaridoos+ per kilo for the yellow or red ones like who the fuck is buying them for that much
>>22101942I used to get the mini ones to pickle and to make relish but $40 a fucking killergram? whose dick do they think they're pulling
>>22099996So much effort for so little return. I just cram the separate ingredients down my gullet and let them mix internally.
Why do you all put cheese on top you fat fucksStuffed eggplant or tomato are better anyway
>>22102017>cheese makes you fat like meyou are gay and retarded
Bell peppers are way better uncooked. I'd rather just have the filling separate.
>>22102027>I'm a lowbrow troglodtye who lacks skill, here's my opinionOh great thank you
>>22102031there is almost no skill required to make stuffed peppers
>>22102036Yet you cannot do it. Shows what an incapable cuck you are
>>22102038I can cut a pepper in half and spoon stuff inside it. I just prefer the taste of fresh peppers. Get the sand out of your vagina.
>>22102039>cut in halfYou already fucked up you turbo gaylord
>>22102040Looks better this way imo
>>22102041>I don't like stuffed peppers but here's my opinionYou really are insufferable
>>22099996I made a shit ton of these one day and scarfed them all down. It was later when I had the bubble guts that I realized my ass devoured a block of cream cheese. Felt miserable.
>>22102043Says the guy so desperate for interaction he wants to fight with strangers about stuffed peppers.
>>22100030that looks like shit faggot
>>22100030Looks good!
>>22101579They weren't raw but they still had a bit of texture to them yeah. I just don't like them leathery and mushy. Why the fuck would you cook the pepper until it's mush? It's like boiling pasta for an hour instead of having it al dente.>>22102040Halfway lets you get more browning of any toppings you'll put on it because you get surface area for topping per pepper, you just need to be more careful about how you cut them so that they sit properly. Cutting the tops off is the easier but less tasty way to do it.
>>22100114Quinoa
>>22099952>peppersyou mean capsicum? great. though i prefer just roasting them and mixing them in with other meals>>22100571>he used green ones and didnt remove the excess moisturemoron
I make them often, but they're kinda boring. Ground meat, rice, onions. Sometimes I make sauce sometimes I dont.
>>22102335Green ones are better if you're not a tiny baby who can't appreciate the bitterness.
>>22102351agreed, love green bell pepper for fajitas and pizza
>stuffed pepperscrammed capsicum*
>>22099952not that good, but a welcome change in a boring dinner rotation.
>>22102515basically this
>>22102351>bitternessthe green ones are sweet you fucking retardwhat kind of dogshit green capsicum are you eating?my comment isnt that he is dumb for using the green ones, its that hes a moron for not removing the excess moisture they hold compared to red and yellow ones.
>>22102822they are less sweet than the ripe ones, but like onions they become sweeter when you cook them. You are talking to a crowd of permanent children that think vegetables are yucky and ketchup is great on hotdogs.
>>22101672okay seems simple enough
>>22102822Green bell peppers are bitter anon, they are the unripe version of red bell peppers. It is well-known that green bell peppers are bitter. I don't know why you're trying to say they aren't outside of trying to come up with a reason why your post was not dumb, but you're making yourself look dumber here.>the excess moister compared to red and yellow onesThe guy's dish tin foil roasting tray was filled with moisture because in the pic he clearly filled his bell peppers with tomato and fresh mozzarella among other things, both of which let out moisture like crazy. If you've ever actually cooked bell peppers in your life(you haven't because you don't know how they taste) you'd know that they don't let out that much moisture when roasted to the extent that his pic shows.And, you know, the moisture isn't fucking red.Maybe you're colorblind, which would explain not knowing which peppers are sweet and why you can't tell what's at the bottom of that tray.
>>22101669i think they're quinoa
>>22099952Every time I go to southern Italy in Calabria I have these tiny ones the size of a baseball, stuffed with bread, tuna, capers, and fried on a pan. They're the best stuffed peppers I had.
You influenced me to do my first. Smoked salmon, shrimps and white cheese with herbs.
>>22100866We all know you are a teenager.
>stuffed peppersno, get out>stuffing with pepper added, served as a mainabsolutely, yesI love bell peppers, just as a support act, not as the main star of a dish
>>22099955stuffed peppers are a 2/10 on the effort scale you retarded faggot
>>22102000cram?
Do pepper colors taste different? My family is convinced that greens are the worst tasting and refuse to eat them.
>>22104287Slightly, as green bell peppers aren't as ripe as other colors.
GF nixed the feta so I went out for some parmesan. Sausage & orzo base. They're okay. I'm not eager to make them again.
>>22104287Yes.
>>22102150if you use good meat it is tender, they shouldn’t have a drastically different density to them. a fork should go easily through the pepper but not be mushy. they have a better flavor when roasted. if you want them raw idk why you would even go through the effort of stuffing them
>>22103591if only we could see that instead of charred tops
>>22104554My oven goes warmer than usual because it's a old one. I didn't precook the pepper with water. I learned for the next time.
>>22100716>>22100594>>22100594>>22099955i buy them from my local supermarket for $1 each
>>22104499They weren't raw, they were tender-crisp. If you take a roasted veg beyond that then you've made a mistake cooking it into textureless shite.>a fork should go easily throughIf you're taking it that far then yeah you're making that mistake.
>this thread is still up
>>22104733Easy, common dish we can all make and discuss. There are still plenty of McDonald's threads on the 'log if you prefer those.
>>22100594>>22104676When you consider the cost per pound it's a lot. Especially when compared to a 10lb bag of potatoes which is less than $3 usd. And they're way more versatile. For the high price I'd rather buy fresh sugar snap peas or green beans.
>>22099952The peppers are always too watery, maybe I need to salt them first
peppers are best raw.
they're great but you should cut them in half the long way
Love me some chiles rellenos, but the need more than just cheese. Some ground beef or chorizo is ideal.
>>22104932a large bell pepper is around 200-300g or 7-10 ozat $1 each, that's only around $1.60-$2 per pound. that isn't expensive at all and is cheaper than many other vegetables
>>22105062I think they need bigger stickers
>>22105062>>22104932also it's a false choice. unless you're a poorfag, there's no reason you can't get both bell peppers and potatoes
