Cut off and save tops of peppers; scrape out their seeds

Run some water into each pepper to clean out any seeds that cling

Now fry some loose sausage meat, permitting the grease to remain in the pot or skillet

Add to the sausage the bread crumbs, mushrooms and celery

Mix it all well and use it for stuffing the peppers

Replace the tops and set the stuffed peppers in a pan with about a tablespoon of water

Put the pan in 300F oven, cook for one and a half hours basting the peppers every 30 minutes.
