Add onions, garlic and chopped pepper and sauté until limp. Add tomato purée, ham, salt, and pepper to taste. Simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in bread crumbs and eggs. Stuff mixture into pepper shells. Sprinkle tops with cracker crumbs. Bake in oven at 350º for about 25 min. or until stuffing is firm and delicately browned on top.
