Bbq Pork & Pasta Stuffed Green Peppers - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 large green bell peppers, cut in half lengthwise
3/4 cup uncooked elbow macaroni
1 1/2 cups leftover cooked pork
3/4 cup barbecue sauce, I used Sweet Baby Ray's Hickory and Brown Sugar
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
While oven is heating up, cut peppers in half lengthwise and remove seeds and membrane.
Also while oven is heating up, boil water for pasta.
When water starts to boil, add pasta and cook till almost al dente'.
In a separate pot large enough to hold cut peppers, add 4 cups of water and start boiling over medium heat.
Add peppers and cook until peppers are slightly tender,drain.
Mix together cooked pasta, pork, and BBQ sauce. ( at this time you can add more sauce if you think you want it \"saucier \" ).
Divide pork/pasta mixture evenly between peppers, top each pepper with 1/8 cup of cheese.
Place into a 11 x 9 inch dish that has been lined with aluminum foil and bake for about 25 minute or until filling is heated through and cheese is melted.
