1 Red Pepper

1 small Italian eggplant (the long tiny ones)- peeled and chopped small

1 small tomato, chopped small

1-2 T tomato and basil flavored crumbled feta cheese

1 T parmesan cheese, ground

1 T fresh basil, chopped fine

1 T whole wheat bread crumbs (I just grind up one slice of bread in the mini-chopper)- or, 1 T panko plain breadcrumbs

1/4 c. roasted garlic flavored hummus (I like Good Neighbor brand low fat)

Salt and Pepper to taste

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut the pepper in half, and scoop out the membrane and seeds. 

Mix together all other ingredients in a small bowl. 

Mound stuffing into peppers. 

Put about 1/2 inch of water in small casserole pan; place peppers into pan and bake for 35-40 minutes or until peppers are done.
