Losing Credibility

My stuffed green pepper experiment was a "fail".  I had leftover marinara and meatballs.  They were fine.  I sauteed more chopped onion, peppers and garlic - just fine.  I added some nice bread crumbs and parmesean cheese.  No prob.  Good rice.  The peppers were just beautiful. 

The failure was adding two eggs.  When I added the eggs I was thinking "This will bind the stuffing" and as I'm breaking the eggs over it I'm seeing a stuffing mix that is already "bound" and does not need more help.  In they go anyway.  Mix it up and its kinda gooey-ish.  Stuff the peppers and it looks decent.  Finish off in the oven and serve and its still too gooey.

So lesson learned is fogetabouttheeggs and just stuffthepeppers.  I'll re-run with the change and share if it hits the mark.

Meantime, hope I don't lose too much "cred" with you guys.  At least I admitted it.  BTW they didn't "look" bad:

Finally - go read and take recipt of Stacie's Greek Stuffed Pepper recipe in the comments.  Wow.  Gotta do that and the Stuffed Tomatoes when those boys are in season.  I LOVE stuffed maters.  Mmmm.
