  • 6 bell peppers, halved and seeded

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • 1 teaspoon oregano

  • 1/2 teaspoon basil

  • 2 large tomatoes, diced

  • 3 cups brown rice, cooked

  • 1 cup Feta cheese, crumbled

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F Lightly grease a baking sheet and put peppers, cut side down, on the surface. Roast in the oven for 20-30 minutes or until they’re tender and skin begins to brown.
