Stuffed Bell Peppers
4 green or red bell peppers
1 lb flank steak
1 medium onion
2 Tbsp olive oil
Provolone or mozzarella cheese
Salt and pepper
How do I make it?
1. Cut a side of each of the bell peppers, take out all the seeds (I take out pretty much everything from the inside to have as much space for the meat).
2. Mince the onion.
3. Cut the meat into small strips, season the meat with salt and pepper (if you want more flavor use a spicy rub from any grocery store).
4. In a pan (medium to medium high heat), saute the minced onion in the olive oil, add the flank steak and cook for a few minutes.
5. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
6. Put a little cheese in the bottom of the hollow bell peppers, add the meat mixture until they are pretty full, and then add another layer of cheese on top.
7. Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes.
Greek Style Tomato and Feta Tart
What do I need?
Phyllo pastry sheets (5 to 10 sheets per tart)
Red and yellow cherry tomatoes about 1 cup.
Feta cheese, crumbled
1 Tbsp of chopped fresh oregano
A few sprigs of fresh thyme
Melted butter
Salt, pepper, and garlic powder
How do I make it?
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Follow the instructions on the phyllo pastry sheets package to thaw it.
3. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half.
4. Use about 5 to 10 sheets of phyllo per tart. As the package explains you must use one sheet, then brush melted butter on the sides of the dough, then add another sheet until you are done with the amount of layers you would like. Then brush melted butter on the top of the whole last layer and fold the sides.
5. Put the dough in a baking sheet, sprinkle the tomatoes, oregano, feta cheese, sprigs of thyme, salt, pepper, and garlic powder on top of the phyllo dough.
6. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until golden brown.
**This recipe is great for a summer night, because it is very light.
