Stuffed peppers

I created this recipe to give new life to bland rice and remove my hatred of brown rice compared to white

This recipe serves 4 Giving each person half a pepper

Calories per pepper are 150 calories

1 pepper per two persons, I prefer green but any colour will do

1 packet of Tilda brown basmati microwave rice

1 tomato finely chopped

1/2 green chilli finely chopped

1 clove of garlic crushed

Juice of half a lemon

Some chopped basil and flat leaf parsley, about a small handful

Salt and pepper to taste

Feta cheese - to taste, I use a dice sized piece for each person

Cut the pepper length ways through the stalk so that each pepper has some stalk at the top

Place on a greased roasting pan, I use low fat spray on mine

Microwave the rice and place in a bowl

Add the garlic, chilli, herbs, lemon juice, chopped tomato and stir

Crumble 2/3 of the feta in and stir again

Stuff the mixture into the peppers and crumble the remaining feta on the tops

Bake at 200c for twenty minutes until golden brown on top

You can play around with the herbs and spices, oregano is nice in them and I have used a pre mixed Greek spice mix and fajita spice mix as well
