In our produce box, we ordered anaheim peppers. These relatively mild peppers are made quite mild when you take out the seeds.
Today I cut off the base and top of the peppers, sliced them in half, and removed the seeds. I cut them into about 3 inch by 1 inch pieces. I then folded all of them into a large piece of foil and baked them in the oven at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. They came out tender and a little smokey. I added a teaspoon-ish of goat cheese (ours had herbs) on each. They were delicious. They tasted like gourmet jalapeno poppers. Yummmm!
On this note, our school is collecting recipes for a charity cookbook. If anyone is interested in contributing a recipe, comment away! If you want to buy a cookbook (I don't know how much yet), do let me know ;)
