Pepperoni Pizza Stuffed Peppers

Peppers make such nice little containers, don’t they?

I remember having a crab stuffed pepper at my grandparents house that I loved. I was probably 5 or 6 at the time. After that, I would always insist that I liked stuffed peppers, but whenever I had one I would be disappointed – they were always heavy and meaty and the pepper itself didn’t seem to make sense flavor-wise. But I finally found another stuffed pepper that I like. This pepper isn’t like those other ones: the bulk of the filling is orzo, which is mixed with pasta sauce, cheese, and your favorite pizza toppings. Its not nearly as dense as traditional stuffed pepper, and using fresh ingredients keeps the flavors light. [….]

Balsamic Onion Jam

The sweet and tangy combination of caramelized onions and balsamic vinegar is a must in my fridge all year round.
