    Cup of Yum
  1. Pre-heat your oven or toaster oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Slice off each of the four sides of your pepper and lay flat on a baking sheet.
  3. Top with sauce, then cheese, followed by any and every veggie in your crisper! I added broccoli and tomatoes to mine.
  4. Bake for 10 minutes, flipping your oven to broil towards the end to make the cheese nice and bubbly.
  5. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes and basil/parsley if desired and dig in!
