With this recipe I intend to start publishing recipes for one person. The same can also be made for more people, just multiply the number of ingredients by the number of diners. I thought that this can be useful to the many people who live alone and who, especially at a time like this (pandemic), cannot organize lunches or have friends over.
Eating a meal alone does not necessarily mean preparing sad and monotonous dishes. Varying your diet, adding color to your dish is also essential for a healthy life. Furthermore, using the right quantities for one person helps to avoid having leftovers and not having to eat the same things over several days. In this recipe I used very small peppers that have been found in supermarkets for some years. They are packaged in transparent boxes and are of mixed colors, they are tender and cook in a few minutes, ideal for coloring a single person’s plate. Initially they were imported from Florida but now they are also grown in Sicily.
