Also known as Italian frying peppers, Cubanelle peppers are large and blocky. They are light green in appearance and they mature red. The thin walls of this pepper make it an excellent choice for frying. This pepper is not hot. Recipe from Binnurs Turkish Cookbook, April 2005.

2 -4 servings (change servings and units)

Ingredients

4 eggs
1 tablespoon cream (or half and half)
1 cubanelle pepper, stemmed and chopped into bite-size pieces (if you can't find cubanelle, try mild anaheim peppers)
4-5 medium sized roma tomatoes, chopped into bite-size pieces
1/2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
salt and pepper

Directions

Place the olive oil and cubanelle peppers in a large pan. Cook for about 2 minutes over medium-high heat.
