Very quick and easy dinner. I did not have red and yellow peppers so I used the abundance of banana peppers from my garden. Also did not have mozzarella cheese so I substituted grated parmesan. Next time and there will be a next time, might add onions and garlic with the peppers. Made for PAC fall 09.
