After hearing the recipe described at a local Italian restaurant, I decided to try to make these peppers at home. Everyone enjoyed the pretty green “shells” brimming with a hearty filling.

This recipe is really easy and VERY tasty! The only thing I would change is to maybe bore a small hole in the pepper to allow for the sausage grease to drain.
