Peppery Cantaloupe Cubes Recipes

Steps:

• Divide cantaloupe cubes into 4 dessert bowls.
• Using pepper mill, grind freshly ground black pepper over cantaloupe to taste.
• Note; Be sure to use freshly ground black pepper- I'm not sure if regular pepper would have the same effect.
• A very ripe cantaloupe, the sweeter the better, works best.

Steps:

• Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in ground sirloin; cook until it begins to brown, and is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Drain any excess fat. Stir in 1 can tomato sauce, green onions, garlic salt, kosher salt, and pepper; cook until flavors combine, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Mix rice into ground sirloin mixture.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Stuff Cubanelle pepper halves with the meat and rice mixture, rounding the tops. Place the stuffed peppers into a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Stir remaining can of tomato sauce, brown sugar, parsley, basil, and oregano together in a bowl. Spoon tomato sauce over peppers in the baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until peppers are hot and beginning to brown, about 1 hour. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.
