Servings: 6

 

Ingredients:

6 slices pastured bacon, cut in half crosswise

6 bell peppers (I used orange but you can use whatever color you like)

½ tsp chili pepper flakes

3 tbsp Dijon mustard

2 tbsp dried parsley

1 tbsp dried thyme

¼ cup extra virgin olive oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

900g ground grassfed beef

1 tbsp ground coriander seeds

Generous grating fresh nutmeg (a little more than half a nut)

1 medium onion, finely chopped

1 tsp onion powder

2 tbsp dried oregano

1 tsp salt

¼ cup sun dried tomatoes, chopped

1 red sweet potato, cut into tiny cubes (the standard orange variety would also do the trick if you can't find the red)

1 fresh tomato, cut into small cubes

½ tsp white pepper

2 whole eggs

Equipment:

mixing bowl

oven

baking paper

baking pan

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat the oven to 375FIn a large mixing bowl, add all the ingredients except for the bell peppers and bacon; mix really well with your hands, kneading until very well combined. Set aside. Cut the tops off each pepper and pull out the stems and seeds. Cut off a very thin slice off the bottom of each pepper to level it so it stands up straight. Be careful not to cut a hole in the pepper: you really dont need to remove much at all! Stuff the meat mixture into the cavity of each bell pepper, making sure that you pack it down real tight. Dont worry if you have too much stuffing, you can shape little mounds on top of your peppers; theyll only look that much better! Top each stuffed pepper with 2 half slices of bacon, in a cross pattern, then place the peppers in a shallow baking dish lined with parchment paper. Bake in the oven, uncovered, for 45 minutes then kill the heat and let the peppers sit in there for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Food Joke

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how attractive and shapely the housekeeper was. Over the course of the evening, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the housekeeper than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, John volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, my relationship with my housekeeper is purely professional." About a week later, the housekeeper came to John and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" John said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner." Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which said "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with your housekeeper, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with your housekeeper. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"
