Macaroni and Cheese Stuffed Peppers



Ingredients:
  • 16 oz macaroni noodles
  • 6 bell peppers
  • 8 oz cream cheese
  • 2 cups shredded cheese
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely diced
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • A pinch of cayenne pepper
  • 6 tsp bread crumbs
Preparations:
  1. Preheat oven to 400ºF.
  2. Cook the macaroni according to package directions. 
  3. While it cooks, prep the peppers by cutting off the stem end of the pepper and de-seeding Arrange peppers opening up in a baking dish.
  4. Make the cheese sauce by measuring the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, milk, garlic, mustard, salt, and cayenne into a microwave-safe bowl. Cook in the microwave 1.5 minute at at time until sauce is fairly smooth with no big cream cheese chunks. 
  5. Drain the macaroni noodles well and then combine them with the sauce. Let sauce sit on noodles for 5-10 minutes. Stir well and then fill peppers with macaroni and cheese.
  6. Top each pepper with a teaspoon of the bread crumbs. Bake until breadcrumbs are browned and peppers are desired tenderness, roughly 25-30 minutes
