Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Cut off the tops of each pepper. Pull out the ribs and seeds and discard. Discard the stems and dice the pepper tops. Set aside. Lightly trim the bottoms of each pepper so they can stand up.
- Stand the peppers up on a baking sheet or large skillet and drizzle with oil. Season with salt and pepper then roast until they begin to soften, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Heat the oil in a medium saucepot over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, jalapenos and onions and cook until the onions are translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the diced pepper tops and eggplant and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften and begin to caramelize, about 3 minutes. Stir in the rice and mix to combine. Add the wine and cook until it is reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 2 cups water and the crushed tomatoes and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until the rice is creamy and al dente, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Remove the saucepot from the heat and stir in the mascarpone and basil. Taste for seasoning, adding additional salt and pepper if needed.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 400 degrees F. Fill each pepper with the rice mixture, then stand them up on the same baking sheet or large skillet and top with the mozzarella. Bake until the cheese is melted and the peppers are cooked through, about 5 minutes. Serve topped with more torn basil and a drizzle of oil.
TRADITIONAL STUFFED BELL PEPPERS
Try using red, yellow, as well as green peppers for a nice presentation. What makes this recipe interesting are the spices--chili pepper and a hint of ground cloves. Sounds strange, but it's delicious.

BRENDA'S REAL SICILIAN STUFFED BELL PEPPERS
There is no real written recipe for these peppers so use whatever you like and have on hand. I learned this dish when I visited my inlaws in Sicily 26 years ago and have been making it ever since. I suggest that you use it as written the first time and then do your own thing next time. I have made this in the microwave, but you have to be careful as green peppers can get bitter. I'm not sure why. My kids were the ones that decided that red peppers would be better and now they make their own with red peppers as well. You can easily control the use of salt, but remember that canned tomatoes, olives and cheese have a lot of salt so don't add too much extra. If you can find low sodium alternatives you will have greater control.

- Heat a dutch oven large enough to hold the peppers upright in one layer over medium heat. Add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the onion, and cook until softened, about 10 minutes. Spoon about half the onion into a large bowl to cool.
- To the onion in the pot, add the tomatoes, slosh out the can with 2 cups water, and add that too. Season with 2 tsp of the oregano, 1 tsp of the salt, and the red pepper flakes.
- Put the bread cubes in a medium bowl with water to cover. Let them soak 5 minutes. Squeeze all of the excess liquid out of the bread, and add the squeezed bread to the cooled onion in the bowl. Add the ground pork, grated cheese, eggs, remaining tsp oregano, and remaining tsp salt. Mix with your hands to make a cohesive stuffing.
- Cut the tops from the peppers, remove the seeds and ribs and divide the stuffing among them. Nestle the peppers in the sauce, cover and simmer until the filling is cooked through and the peppers are tender, about 1 hour.
