Good thing I had a lot of peppers (for this and another dish) since you had no amt listed and some ended up in my mouth before serving....hey, I couldn't resist. Since I had a bunch of recipes to make for my tapas party, I'm glad I could make this one early and leave in the fridge until serving time. Each pepper is not very big so you only need about a teaspoon full to stuff.
