Scary Stuffed Peppers
One of the reasons Halloween party is such a fun party is because we can be creative and try some fun recipes.
If you are looking for a quick and easy Halloween recipe that everyone loves, you have to give these Scary Stuffed Peppers a try.
To make these stuffed peppers, carve the peppers with a sharp knife to look like Jack-o-lanterns and stuff them with pasta or rice. It is a simple and fun Halloween recipe for kids!
Yield: Serves 2
- 2 large bell peppers
- 100 g linguine pasta
- 1/2 cup marinara sauce or any pasta sauce you like
- 1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
To prepare the peppers, cut a round section on the top of the pepper and discard the seeds and scrape away the insides.
Using a very sharp and small knife, carve Jack-o-Lantern faces into each pepper.
Bring a pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and place peppers in the pot. Boil until slightly softened about 3-4 minutes (take care not to overcook or they might fall apart later on). Drain the water.
Meanwhile cook pasta in a pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite (or cook the pasta according to the package directions).
Once cooked, drain and transfer to a bowl. Toss with olive oil. Add marinara sauce (or pasta sauce) and cilantro. Stir to coat.
Then stuff the peppers with the pasta mixture and serve.
