Ember-roasted Stuffed Bell Peppers

Take a knife and cut into the top of the pepper, running it around the outside edge, around the stalk. Then holding the stalk, yank the core out in one swift action. A little further scooping of any of those extra white seedy bits inside can be done with the knife too.

Now to the filling. Do any chopping on a clean surface. A chopping board is ideal, but an upside down pot will work just as well.
Bread is your stable filling. There will always be some form of it floating around a campsite. So chop, tear or rip it up; any means to get in into little bits to fit inside those peppers.
Enter cheese. Once melted, the cheese will bind the filling together nicely. Cheddar is my go to here, but to each their own, if you have other ideas, go for it, I won’t judge.
I’ve added chicken to these before, to “beef” them up as it were. This essentially turns them into a full blown meal. Bacon is another trusty and loyal friend while camping, that too will do wonders in the barrel of your pepper. Just make sure any meat filling is properly cooked and diced before adding.
Other fillings that work well are mushrooms and onions. Some garlic will also work to add some earthy flavour.
Mix all the fillings together well and then stuff inside the pepper. Top off with some more grated cheese.

Once you’re happy with your filling, it’s time to cook. Wrap the pepper in some foil and chuck it on the outskirts of a good fire. There’s no real set duration, you just want to make sure the inside of the pepper is piping hot. 10-20mins should do it. Also, if you like a charred taste, you can be daring and roast the pepper without foil. Maybe give it a little leeway from the fire though.
Voila! It’s as simple as that, once you’ve taken the peppers from the fire, get stuck in! (Tongs are recommended here of course, nobody likes burnt fingers).

Before I leave you I would say one thing; experiment. There are too many options to mention for what you can get inside these peppers. Next time I plan on adding some zing with some cooked chicken and chopped chillis. So get cooking, and be creative!
