Ingredients
• 2 1/4 pounds mussels scrubbed and beards removed
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 garlic cloves
• 2-3 green bell peppers halved, seeded and sliced

Directions
Put the mussels in a skillet with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and one of the garlic cloves and cook over high heat for about 5 minutes until they open.
