Peppers
Description
Choose sweet, large bell peppers with a blunt end so they stand steadily during baking. You can prepare the "Taco" spice mix yourself. For this, combine 1 tablespoon ground chili, 1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon paprika, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon onion powder, ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, and ¼ teaspoon oregano.
