Directions
Herb Stuffing:

- Allow the mixture to marinate for 10 minutes.
Herb Stuffed Pork Chops:
- Slice incisions into the pork chops using a small sharp knife.
- Use a small spoon to stuff the herb stuffing into the incisions. Fill the chops so they are full but not bulging.

Stuffed Peppers:

- Brush the bell peppers with olive oil.
- Brush the stuffed pork chops with olive oil and season them with salt and pepper.
- Preheat a grill or oven-proof pan over medium-high heat.
- Place the pork chops on the grill or pan and cook for 3-5 minutes on each side or until nicely charred (cooking time depends on the thickness of the chops).
- Flip the chops and repeat until they reach the desired doneness or have an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place the bell peppers flesh side down on the grill and cook for 3 minutes or until the edges are slightly charred.
- Flip the peppers over and stuff them with the mushroom onion and cheese mixture. Drizzle some olive oil over the top for added flavor and moisture.
Pineapple Salsa:
- In a bowl, combine the diced pineapple, diced red pepper, diced orange pepper, diced cucumber, and diced apple.
- Drizzle the sesame oil over the mixture and toss well to combine.
