To ensure even doneness, do not stack the peppers on top of each other; keep them in a single layer. If you have a wok with a steaming rack, all the peppers can be steamed at the same time.

If the tomatoes ar whole, chop them or break themup with a fork. pour the tomato mixture over the stuffed peppers. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake at 350 deg for 30 minutes. Serve with a big green saslad and slices of ripe avocado. Variation: Use 2 cups of tomato sauce instead of the canned tomatoes mixed with tomato paste. from the files of DEEANNE
