Peppers Stuffed With Cream Cheese And Sausage Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
• Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Drop peppers into the boiling water. Turn heat off and let peppers soak until softened a bit, about 5 minutes. Remove peppers and set aside until cool enough to handle.
• Mix sausage and cream cheese thoroughly in a bowl. Fill peppers with sausage mixture and place on the prepared baking sheet. Roll any extra sausage mixture into meatballs and place next to the stuffed peppers. Spoon pasta sauce over peppers and meatballs and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until sausage mixture starts to turn golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), about 35 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage with fennel, sage, salt, and pepper in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Place peppers into a baking dish. Spread 1/2 to 1 ounce cream cheese into each pepper. Add sausage mixture to each pepper and sprinkle with pepper Jack cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until softened and bubbly, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• 1. In a skillet, crumble and brown sausage. Drain well. In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese and parmesan cheese. Fold in sausage.
• 2. Take peppers and cut in half. Remove seeds (if you are using jalapeno peppers, use rubber gloves). Take sausage mixture (approx. 1T) and put inside of peppers - pushing down slightly. Place on a aluminum foil lined sheet cake pan and bake @ 425 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Baking time may vary a bit depending on the type of pepper you use. This is based on jalapenos.
• 3. Ranch dressing for dipping is optional.
