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