Servings: persons

4 yellow bell peppers, cut in half lengthwise (keep the stem on, remove the seeds and ribs, red peppers are fine too, I just happen to like the col)
olive oil
1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 (15 ounce) can artichoke hearts, rinsed, drained, and rough chopped
1 (4 ounce) can black olives, sliced (buy they pre-sliced to save time)
1 (7 ounce) package frozen spinach, drained well (I didn't use all the spinach, about 1/2, but as mentioned, this recipe is so easy you can really use)
3 plum tomatoes, lightly seeded and diced
1 small onion, fine chopped
2 scallions, diced fine
1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, fine chopped
1 tablespoon fresh basil, fine chopped
⅛ cup olive oil
1 ½ tablespoons red wine vinegar
½ teaspoon dried oregano
kasseri cheese (you can substitute any good melting cheese, I just happen to love Kasseri)

1
Stuffing -- In a large bowl, add the beans, artichokes, olives, spinach, tomatoes, onion, scallions, parsley, basil, red wine vinegar, olive oil and oregano and mix well to combine.
2
Add the feta and toss lightly.
3
Peppers -- Cut a small thin slice off each pepper on the bottom so the pepper will sit flat, but don't cut all the way through.
4
Stuff each pepper with the stuffing mixture and then rub or brush olive oil on the outside of the pepper.
5
Grill -- I grilled mine on medium heat, but on a cooler part of the grill (or indirect heat) so it isn't over direct flames.
6
You don't want the peppers to burn.
7
The pepper will take about 20-25 minutes.
8
Note: If needed, you can place a piece of foil (large enough to accommodate the 8 peppers) on the grill, so if the peppers start to get too brown on the bottom you can transfer them to the foil and they will continue to cook but won't burn.
9
The last 3-4 minutes, top with the Kasseri cheese.
10
Cook until melted.
11
Serve -- Just enjoy them.
12
Note: These can also be made in the oven, but they don't have the same flavor.
13
The smoky flavor is what makes these so good.
