food stuffed banana peppers

this is something I make and really enjoy. it's easy and quick -just the way I like to cook.

you will need:

banana peppers
package of Mexican chorizo
8 oz package of cheese (i use mexican blend)
can of enchilada sauce

combine the cheese and chorizo. remove the pepper tops and slice each down the side (i remove the seeds/membranes). stuff each pepper with the chorizo/cheese mixture and place them in a baking dish (like a 9x12). cover them with the can of enchilada sauce and cover the dish with aluminum foil. bake at 425F for about 40 minutes (longer for softer peppers, shorter for firmer).

we eat these on tortillas. you could add onion/sour cream/etc on the tortilla - just like a taco. whatever you feel up to.

i would think you could make this with hot banana peppers, hot chorizo and hot enchilada sauce - make it to whatever heat you like. enjoy. :)
 
That sounds good. I have had stuffed peppers before but never with chorizo that I will have to try.
 
Sounds good man. :-)

The sad thing is I have everything to make it except the peppers.

Knew I spaced something at the store. ;)

I did get a bag of Serranos though...hmmm.
