Another winner of a recipe from Mimi Bobeck! These were very, very tasty - the peppers were extremely tender but not soggy. I think the trick was the parboiling before filling, followed by a shorter cooking time in the oven than other stuffed pepper recipes I'd tried previously. I thought the filling was also delicious - and unique. I had never thought to include beans & BBQ sauce in stuffed pepepr filling before and really enjoyed the flavor. These also looked great. Thanks!

Very busy nanny/au pair, working for a very rich and snooty family, in a very large home, in a very snooty village. Just in case my employer comes here, please don't ask where I am from, or I'll be sacked like the last nanny was. ;-) I take care of 4 gorgeous, and darling kids. 3 girls and a boy. The boy is the youngest (and my favorite). They are great children, very, very active. (Hyper)
I love to cook. I guess that's a given, why else would I be here. Part of my job is also to prepare meals for the family. The more they like my food, the longer I get to stay. (just a little joke)
On my day off, I usually go out to the cinema or some dance clubs with the other au pairs in this town. That's about it I think.
