Ingredients:

Serving

4 whole poblano peppers , seeds removed
2 cups chicken stock or water
2 cups cornmeal or quick/instant polenta
2 medium tomatoes, diced
1 jalapeno pepper
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tsp. epazote
1 tbsp salt
1/4 cup parsley

Directions:

Cut the tops of the poblanos and remove seeds. cut a line down the center of each pepper so you can stuff more delicious filling inside
Bring water or chicken stock to a boil. (I haven't used the instant polenta before so I don't really know how that one works). Using a whisk, slowly pour and stir the cornmeal into the liquid until it's all absorbed. I like my polenta to be more gooey than bread-like so you can add water depending on what you want the consistency to be.
Stir in diced tomato, hot pepper pieces, salt and herbs, and 1 cup of the cheese. Mix until everything's distributed evenly.
Stuff those peppers! Mound the extra stuffing on top of the peppers.
Sprinkle the rest of the cheese over the top of it all.
Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese and everything looks nice and done.
Eat!
