Ingredients

  • 4 large Anaheim peppers
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup yellow onion diced
  • 14 ounces vegan chorizo-style sausage
  • 2 cups vegan cheddar cheese shredded

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Prepare the peppers for stuffing by removing the stems then slicing the peppers in half lengthwise. Remove any seeds and membranes. Set aside.
  • Into a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the onion and crumble the chorizo sausage into the pan. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently until sausage is browned and onion is softened. Remove from heat.
  • Add the cheddar cheese and stir to distribute throughout.
  • Spoon generous portions of the sausage and cheese mixture into each pepper. Arrange the filled peppers onto a roasting pan. Bake for 15 minutes and serve hot.
