Bake a large potato (I usually microwave it for 10 minutes then bake it for half an hour as it's quicker), when it's done cut it in half and scoop out the potato leaving just the skin (but don't throw them away as you need them later)
Meanwhile, chop up a green pepper, a small onion, a couple of mushrooms and a couple of rashers of bacon. Fry them all together and add them to the scooped out baked potato. Mix together with a pinch of salt and a generous grind of balck pepper and put the potato mix back into the halved potato skin shells and grate some cheese over the top and pop back into the oven until the cheese has melted.
Serve with a light salad with Caesar dressing.
Scrummy! |

"Im just making some roast tomato soup, it was going to be tomato and red pepper but couldnt be bothered to deseed the peppers"
i dont know why but ive never tried to eat peppers. Is there a difference in the flavour or is the colour just a 'cosmetic effect' |

"Wishy that sounds yummy.. i tend to scoop the inner out, mix it with some margarine and a tin of tuna yum yum"
Try my recipe, it's really delicious, we have it once a week (usually on Mondays cos it's light and we have a full roast on Sundays).  |

I think red ones have more flavour, but i tend to use different colours just depending on what im cooking for different colour combinations. Different types of pepper have different flavours but if your just talking about the bog stand pepper |

Green peppers turn red eventually. Yellow peppers have a slightly different taste from red/green peppers. For the recipe I posted above you can use any colour as the flavour blends in with all the others flavours present to make a combined flavour that a sort of potato/ham/mushroom/cheese with hints of pepper and onion. |

Or yellow or orange.... with the exception of purple ones, all sweet peppers are green until fully rip. It's why the green ones aree a little more on the bitter side. |

Is Brannigans a brand or a supermarket chain? Never heard of them/it. |

as opposed to the red hot chili pepper perhaps?

Buy jacket potatoes ready made? Seriously? People do that? 
Almost as bad as people who buy frozen yorkshire puddings. For people too lazy to mix flour, eggs & milk 
Tonight we're having pork (leftover from last nights roast)in yellowbean sauce, served with HM egg fried rice. I'll also make a shepherds pie for the freezer whilst i'm at it for a night I can't be bothered to cook.
