Gratinéed Red Peppers

Ingredients

3 medium size red peppers

1/4 cup bread crumbs

3 tablespoons parmesan cheese

4 tablespoons olive oil

salt, pepper to taste

Directions

Core the peppers and remove the white ribs.

Cut the peppers into thirds (or quarters if large) and place on a pan smeared with olive oil.

Drizzle a little olive oil over the peppers, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Bake the peppers at 350 degrees for 1/2 hour.

Meanwhile, prepare the filling by mixing together the bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, olive oil, salt, pepper and thyme.

Divide the filling among the peppers and bake for another 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
