Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut around the stem ends of the green peppers and remove a "hat" from each pepper with the stem in the center. Trim these hats at the base so they are about 1/2-inch thick and set them aside. Remove and discard seeds and trim the ribs of the peppers. Stand the peppers upright side by side in a gratin dish.

Step 2

In a bowl combine the sausage, mushrooms, bread crumbs, onions, zucchini, salt and pepper and mix well. Stuff the peppers with this mixture and place the hats back on top.

Step 3

Sprinkle the olive oil on top of the peppers and pour 1 cup of water around them. Place the peppers in the oven for 1 hour 15 minutes. Serve with the surrounding juice, salt and pepper.
