Ingredients

5 bell peppers (red, yellow, or green, it's your choice1 cup coursely chopped fresh mushrooms1 cup dry stove top stuffing mix 1 Tbsp water1 Tbsp low fat buttery spread1 Tbsp olive oil2 chicken breasts, skin removedwhite rice

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Boil chicken until thoroughly cooked. Mix stove top, water, butter, and mushrooms in a small bowl. Cut the tops off all peppers and remove seeds and membranes. Cut chicken into pieces, any size that suits you, and stuff into the peppers. Fill the rest of each pepper with the stuffing mixture. Place peppers (upright, of course) in a glass pan and drizzle olive oil over the tops. That gives the suffing a little crunch. Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes. Cook rice as directed. It usually takes about 20 minutes to make rice, except for instant, so it should all time out perfectly! Serve any way you want! Makes 5 servings. So yummy!!

We didn't care for this one at all. It was very bland and the peppers were not cooked well enough, probably should have blanched them first before putting in the oven. I also did not like the combination of the stuffing with rice, it did not seem to go together at all. - 4/4/07
