Tomatoes Mozzarella And Peppers Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the broiler with a rack 6 inches from heat source. Score the sausages in a few places on both sides, making sure not to cut all the way through. In a shallow baking dish or baking sheet, toss the sausages with the peppers, tomatoes, garlic, shallots and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and spread in an even layer.
• Broil until the sausage is cooked through and the peppers and tomatoes are nicely charred, 10 to 15 minutes. Rotate the pan and ingredients as needed so everything gets under the broiler. If everything is charring too quickly, cover the pan with foil. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• On round plate, arrange tomato and cheese slices alternately. Drizzle oil and vinegar over tomatoes and cheese. Sprinkle with basil and pepper.
• Let stand at room temperature 20 minutes to blend flavors. Cover and refrigerate leftovers.

Steps:

• Slice tomatoes about 1/2 inch thick and place on a serving dish.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Slice the mozzarella about 1/4 inch thick, and place on top of the tomatoes.
• Arrange slices of roasted pepper over the cheese.
• Sprinkle with basil.
• (To get the basil"ribbons", stack the leaves, roll them up, and slice them across) Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

Steps:

• Marinate the mozzarella. In a plastic container with a lid add Hidden Valley® Farmhouse Originals® Italian with Herbs Dressing and mini mozzarella balls. Seal and shake. Refrigerate at least 8 hours, shaking here and there, (if you remember.) Assemble the salad. In a large bowl add tomatoes and bell peppers. Using a slotted spoon transfer marinated mozzarella balls to the large bowl and toss everything together. If more dressing is needed, pour it from the container in which you marinated the mozzarella. Serve salad chilled or room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip the orzo into a medium casserole dish, then stir in the oil, red peppers, olives, chilli flakes and dried oregano. Tip in the chopped tomatoes, then refill the can halfway with water and pour that in too. Give everything a good mix, season, then cover and bake for 20 mins until the pasta is almost cooked. Take it out of the oven and give the orzo a stir. Remove the foil and return to the oven for a further 5 mins.
• Heat the grill to high. Take the orzo out of the oven and tear the mozzarella over the top, then grill until melted and bubbling. Serve with salad on the side, if you like.

Steps:

• Put a baking sheet in the oven and preheat to fan 200C/conventional 220C/gas 7. (Heating the sheet helps cook the pastry base.) Use the pastry to line a shallow rectangular tin about 20 x 30cm. Prick the base lightly with a fork.
• Scatter the Parmesan over the pastry base. Drain the peppers and pat dry on paper towels. (If the peppers are in oil, don't worry about this part.) Lay the whole peppers widthways across the pastry base. If the peppers aren't in oil, brush a little over them and the pastry, then season. Bake for about 15 minutes until the pastry is puffy and golden.
• Slice the tomatoes and mozzarella. Lay alternating, slightly overlapping lines of tomato and mozzarella over the peppers. Drizzle with oil, scatter with basil leaves and an extra grinding of black pepper, then serve while the pastry is still warm.

Steps:

• Chop reserved green bell pepper tops and measure out 1/4 cup.
• Bring a pot of water to a boil; cook whole green bell peppers until slightly tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and season inside of bell peppers with a little salt.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef, onion, garlic, and reserved 1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper in the hot skillet until ground beef is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Stir canned tomatoes and liquid, rice, 1/2 cup water, Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon salt, hot sauce, and black pepper into ground beef mixture; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover skillet with a lid, and simmer until rice is tender, 15 to 18 minutes.
• Stir 3/4 the mozzarella cheese and 3/4 the tomato sauce into ground beef-rice mixture. Stuff bell peppers with ground beef-rice mixture; top each with remaining mozzarella cheese and tomato sauce. Arrange stuffed peppers in a baking dish. Cover dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through and cheese is melted, 30 to 35 minutes.
