Poblano Rellenos-Appetizer or "just for 1" Meal.

Brenda.'s Note:

This is a great snack, or a "meal for 1". Do not over blacken the peppers, or they will be too mushy to handle.

• Total Time: 30 mins
• Prep Time: 5 mins
• Cook Time: 25 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 1

• 7 1/2 ounces black beans (canned)
• 1/4 cup red bell peppers or 1/4 cup green bell pepper, diced
• 1/3 cup onion, finely diced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• grated parmesan cheese

1. Heat broiler in oven.
2. Lightly spray broiler pan with non stick cooking spray.

Yummy! I would consider this a meal rather than an appetizer. These peppers are quite healthy and filling. I added some cumin to the stuffing mixture and used cheddar and parmesan cheese. I garnished with chopped scallions. What a fantastic meatless meal! Thanx for sharing.

My DH and I had these for dinner tonight and enjoyed them! Healthier because very little cheese. Thanks!
