Filled with tangy feta and a handful of sweet tiny tomatoes, red bell peppers take on a Mediterranean twist. You can also try other varieties of small tomatoes such as grape, currant, or even yellow pear in the filling.

Ingredients
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F, with the rack in the top third. Place the bell pepper halves, cut sides up, in a baking dish. Toss together the tomatoes, feta, thyme, and basil in a medium bowl; season with black pepper. Fill each pepper with tomato and feta mixture, dividing evenly. Drizzle each with oil.
Step 2
Bake the stuffed peppers, covered with aluminum foil, until they begin to soften, about 30 minutes. Remove the foil; continue to bake until the tomatoes begin to burst and the cheese turns light brown, 13 to 15 minutes more. Remove the stuffed peppers from the oven, and serve warm.
