Cook chorizo in skillet until done and drain off fat. Add the mushrooms and onions to skillet and saute until onion is clear and done. Stir back in the chorizo.

In a mixing bowl, combine chorizo mixture, cream cheese, shredded cheese, and a good pinch of salt and pepper.

Half the peppers vertically. Use a paring knife to cut and scrape out as much of the white membranes and seeds in each pepper as possible.
