This recipe is certainly not quick, but definitely is easy. These large Red Bell Peppers halves are filled with thawed Stouffer’s Corn Soufflé, that has been jazzed up a bit with Cumin, Cilantro, Garlic Powder, and a dash of Tabasco Sauce.
After the Corn Soufflé is cooked through, and lightly browned, Monterey Jack cheese is sprinkled on top for melty goodness.
The dish is then returned to the oven for a few more minutes to give the cheese topping a golden crust.
