Jack O’Lantern bell peppers

Jack O’Lantern bell peppers are such an easy and delicious dish to make. We made them for Halloween and will make them again this Saturday for a Halloween party. Bell peppers are easy to make into scary faces and even the kids can help carve them. I filled mine with couscous, but really you can use anything to fill them with anything.

My grandmother used to fill them with minced meat and cook them in tomato sauce. They weren’t Jack O’ Lantern bell peppers but filled bell peppers none the less. I wanted to make me Jack O’Lantern bell peppers vegetarian, thus I skipped the meat this time. If you want them gluten free fill them with rice instead of couscous. I tried a batch with red rice, it came out really delicious.

You can either have this as a main dish or a part of many smaller dishes. You can serve them with Hasselbat potatoes and a mean kidney bean dip.
