Stuffed Marinated Peppers

INGREDIENTS
Provolone or Mozzarella Cheese
Green Cherry Peppers
Proscuitto
White Vinegar
Olive Oil

This is definitely an acquired taste, not low calorie and you should propably never eat more than one.  It is not necessarily hot, but strong.  I have seen this appetizer with 2 versions, both provolone and mozzarella cheese.  I actually like the mozzarella verson better since the provolone adds even more pungency, and the mozzarella tastes better and is easier to chew since the pepper is crunchy.

Carve out the top and center of the green cherry pepper and marinate in the vinegar/olive oil mixture.  Wrap a small 1/2" (1cm) cube of cheese in a small slice of prosciutto and stuff the with with it.  Place back in the vinegar/olive oil mixture until serving time.
