    12 slices provolone cheese
    16 oz fresh mushrooms, sliced
    2 medium sweet onions, sliced

Tips

You can cut out 70 calories and 5g of fat by eliminating the cheese inside the pepper.


Directions

Saute onions and mushrooms over medium heat with butter, olive oil, minced garlic and a little salt and pepper until nice and caramelized. (About 25-30 minutes.)

Slice roast beef into thin strips and add to the onion/mushroom mixture. Allow to cook 5-10 minutes

Cut each pepper in half lengthwise and remove the ribs/seeds. Place a slice of provolone cheese inside each pepper and fill with the meat mixture.

Top each pepper with another slice of provolone cheese.

Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes until the cheese on top is golden brown.
