The best part is that you?ll need very few ingredients, about 10 minutes of active cooking time, and once these beauties are in the oven, you?ll have time to make a salad and set the dinner table.

This is one of my husband?s favorite recipes, and I love to make it when I expect guests. Simple, easy, tasty!

THE ROASTED PEPPER STUFFING

The stuffing is made with only five ingredients:

Roasted Peppers. You can use store-bought, jarred roasted peppers, or roast the peppers yourself. Both options work well, so the choice is yours.
Cream Cheese. Any brand will work here.
Feta Cheese. Try to buy good-quality feta cheese that is sold in blocks, and then crumble it with your hands.
Parmesan Cheese. You can substitute it with shredded mozzarella if you prefer. Both options work great!
Parsley.You can use fresh chopped dill or basil instead, or skip it altogether.
