My son and I go crazy 
seriously crazy now that we can get anaheim or hatch peppers. We planted anaheims this spring but they are not ready, so we buy them in the store.
I'm baking some stuffed peppers as I am typing here.
I take some cream cheese, a lot for a lot of peppers, a little for a few peppers, and I mix in some of my olive/pepper/onion concoction that I keep in the refrigerator. Here is the recipe thread for that: homesteadingfamilies.proboards.com/thread/6171/olive-relish-salads-vegetables-sandwiches
So for 2-8oz packages of cream cheese I mix in 1/3 of a cup of the olive relish stuff. Put the cream cheese in a microwave safe bowl and soften it up by microwaving for 30 seconds at a time. If you don't have the olive relish, use finely chopped olives, pickles, pickled peppers, capers or whatever you have on hand.
You can peel the peppers by roasting, or charring them over the flame, or you can use them unpeeled. Cut off the stem end, slit from top to bottom on one side, clean out all the seeds and veins if you like. If you are cleaning hot hot hot peppers, use gloves.
Stuff the peppers with a few tablespoons of the cream cheese mix and then squeeze the sides of the pepper back together, it will stick like glue.
These peppers are pretty long so I wrap them with two strips of streaky bacon, put them on parchment on a cookie sheet or half sheet pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour to 1 and 1/4 hour.
These are incredibly good and low carb. Don't tell my doctor I eat these.
