Ingredients
- 12 ounces dry elbow macaroni (NOT instant mac n' cheese)
- 1 ¼ cups gruyere cheese shredded
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese shredded
- 1 cup White Cheddar Cheese shredded, + ½ cup, divided
- 1 cup heavy cream (or half & half, or other milk)
- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400. Cook macaroni noodles according to package instructions, then drain.
- Add macaroni, cheeses (except for 1/2 cup white cheddar), heavy cream (or other milk) and stir over medium heat until cheeses are melted. Stir in salt and pepper.
- Chop the tops of the peppers off and scoop out the seeds. Fill pepper with cheesy macaroni. Top with remaining shredded white cheddar cheese. Bake for about 10-15 minutes until cheese is melted. Sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired, serve warm.
