INGREDIENTS
6 | Red or yellow bell peppers | |
2 | T | Sunflower oil |
2 | Cloves garlic, minced | |
1 | lb | Tomatoes, peeled and chopped |
Salt and pepper, to taste | ||
1 | t | Sugar |

INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Place the peppers on a baking sheet and roast for 1/2 hour. Place in a brown paper bag, seal and let rest for 15 minutes. Use a sharp knife to remove the skins and seeds, leaving the peppers as intact as possible. Place the oil in a skillet over high heat and saut the garlic until gold, about one minute. Add the fresh or canned tomatoes (a 14 oz. can of stewed plum tomatoes may be substituted), crushing them between your fingers while allowing as few seeds as possible into the sauce. Season with salt and pepper, add the sugar and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Set the oven at 350 degrees. Slip a slice of cheese inside each pepper, place in a baking dish, cover with tomato sauce and bake for 20 minutes.

A Message from our Provider:
“We can do nothing, we say sometimes, we can only pray. That, we feel, is a terribly precarious second-best. So long as we can fuss and work and rush about, so long as we can lend a hand, we have some hope; but if we have to fall back upon God — ah, then things must be critical indeed! #A.J. Gossip”
