Dads if you want to pamper Mom on her day try this wonderful dish.  If crab is not on the top of her list of favorite foods fill the mushroom with shredded pork or beef instead.  To roast your pepper halves place them on a cookie sheet that has been greased with a little olive oil. Place them in a 400 degree oven for 15 minutes or until tender.
