6 large bell peppers
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 tbsp margarine
1 cup chopped plum tomato
1 cup diced okra
2 cups corn
2 cups canned black turtle beans, drained, liquid reserved
freshly ground pepper
cayenne pepper
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Set a large pot of water to boil.
2. Remove the top from the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Place the peppers in the boiling water and cook for 7 minutes and drain well.
3. Meanwhile lightly saute the onions in the margarine over medium high heat until soft. Add the remaining ingredients including 3 tablespoons of the bean juice and cook for 5 minutes.
4. Place the peppers in a lightly greased shallow baking dish. Spoon the tomato mixture into the peppers and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the peppers are tender.
