Corn Stuffed Peppers

Cut fresh corn from the cob and cook until tender in milk, a little cream, salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar. Cut green peppers crosswise or lengthwise, remove seeds and wash. Boil 3 to 5 minutes. Drain. Fill with corn. Place filled peppers in a shallow dish, add a little water. Brush tops with butter. Heat in a moderate oven.

Interesting. I have had stuffed peppers before, but not with corn.

Another Stuffed Peppers recipe from " "Old Timey Recipes".

3/4 cup cooked macaroni
6 medium green peppers
1 pound ground beef
1 1/4 cup tomato soup
1 egg, beaten
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons catsup
a couple tablespoons chopped onions

Cook macaroni in 2 quarts boiling water, 1 teaspoon salt. Blanch peppers 3 to 5 minutes, after removing seeds. Combine meat and soup and other ingredients. Fill the peppers with the mixture and replace cap of the peppers. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes. Top each pepper with a little of the soup and bake 10 minutes or until tender. Use only 1 cup of the soup in the pepper filling mixture. Save the rest for the final 10 minutes of the baking.

Yes, I see the second is more what we think of as a stuffed pepper recipe- had never heard of using corn, bet it's amazing! Corn sliced right from the cob like that is always SO much better, don't ask me why!

We use salsa in stuffed peppers, and ( cooked ) basmati rice instead of macaroni. It's a mistake to use anything except mild salsa, however- learned that the hard way! The ' heat' seems to permeate the entire dish and GROWS, Holy Heck.

Basmati rice doesn't seem to absorb taste solely from the other ingredients? Keeps it's own flavor, so there's another ' thing' in the peppers, not just a filler- if that makes any sense. A lot of white rice, seem to have no real taste all by themselves.

Corn! That sounds very interesting. Granny used to put some green pepper in with the canned corn because didn't like canned - said it tasted like it came out of a can! It's good with fresh, too. I want to try this soon.

Ole This was made when south short on many items. Sometimes corn about all they had.

It is good, give it a try.
