Steps:
- Place an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with vegetable oil cooking spray and set aside.
- In a medium skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the pancetta and cook, stirring frequently, until brown and crispy, about 5 to 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the pancetta and drain on paper towels. Add the onion to the pan and cook until translucent and soft, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
- In a medium bowl, combine the onion, pancetta, cheeses, and peas. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Using a paring knife, cut 1/2-inch from the stem-end of the peppers. Remove the seeds and veins. Using a small dessert spoon, fill each pepper with the ricotta mixture. Place the filled peppers on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes until the peppers begin to soften. Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes.
- Arrange the peppers on a platter and serve.

Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the baby bell peppers in a single layer and cook, turning, until the skins blister and start browning, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
- Add the onion, poblano, garlic, cumin, oregano, ancho and chipotle chile powders and 1 teaspoon salt to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until the onion and poblano are tender, about 8 minutes. Increase the heat to medium high and add the pork. Cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Remove from the heat; let cool.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Make a slit in each baby bell pepper with a paring knife, cutting from stem to tip. Crumble the meat mixture into small bits, then stir in the cilantro and cheese. Stuff 2 to 3 teaspoons of the meat mixture into each pepper using your fingers or a small spoon; transfer to a baking sheet. (The peppers can be stuffed up to 4 hours ahead; cover and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature before baking.)
- Bake until the peppers are hot and the cheese melts, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and serve with lime wedges.
STUFFED BABY BELL PEPPERS (EGYPTIAN RECIPE)
Most Mediterranean countries have a recipe for stuffed bell peppers. The stuffing in all of them share one common ingredient which is the rice, then the herbs and spices added in each country make all the difference. As for the ground beef I used here; most of the time it is not used in the Egyptian recipe to save money.

Steps:

- 2. In a mixing bowl, add the rest of the ingredients except the water. Mix very well making sure to break any lumps in the ground beef.
- 3. Fill the peppers with the rice mixture (but don't pack them too tight so as to allow room for the rice to plump when cooked).
- 4. Stand the filled peppers up in a pot, add the hot water (or broth), bring to the boil then reduce the heat, cover and let it simmer till the rice is cooked; about 35 - 45 minutes. In Egypt it is served with plain yogurt or garlic yogurt.
