I have been wanting to make stuffed peppers for the longest time but for whatever reason, is just one of those ideas that gets pushed aside or forgotten. I was reminded about this lovely idea when I was visiting over at Zestybeandog’s Blog, which made me put my want into action. Thanks Zestybeandog for the reminder. This is really a tasty meal and we enjoyed the yellow pepper so much more than the red. It seemed to have more flavour once baked.

Woot! First post.
I havent made stuffed peppers before as I am afraid it would not turn out good, this post had inspired me to make some soon
They are much easier and nicer than what we original thought Raymund. I look forward to hearing about yours. Have a super Monday. 🙂
I love the filling…rice and mushrooms…hearty, and tasty!
The filling options and variations are endless Angie – such a nice meal. Have a super week. 🙂
I have done something similar recently!!! This looks gorgeous!!
Thanks Pink, they were really yummy. Have a happy week. 🙂
Mandy, I love stuffed peppers and enjoy seeing different takes on this classic. I’m excited about all the tasty inclusions you have worked in to this recipe and it just looks so comforting…
Thanks Kelly, these definitely fall into the comfort food category and we will be enjoying them soon again. have a happy day. 🙂
excellent. not only are they gorgeous and delish peppers but stuffed with one of my favorite ingredients- sausage! They scream savory and delicious! I am getting hungry
These peppers really do cover all the bases for comfort and yumminess Belle. Have a super Monday. 🙂
I’ve only stuffed green peppers before – now I’m definitely going to try the yellow pepper! 🙂 Have a good one Mandy!
Really doubt that I will stuff anything other than the yellow ones moving forward Kristy. Have a goody too. 🙂
Lovely – now I am asking myself why I only make these in the summer?!
Strange that we get set on making certain things at certain times of the year. Enjoy and have a super week. 🙂
I’ve not made stuffed peppers in ages and these look like a great way to get re-acquainted. I avoid using green bell peppers, preferring the red but, if you say “Go yellow!” then I’m Team Yellow for this dish. Enjoy your day!
I would love to hear how you enjoy the yellow peppers compared to the red ChgoJohn. Have a super day. 🙂
I love stuffed peppers… your version looks so perfect 🙂 Beautiful fresh colors 🙂
Thanks Tes! Have a super day. 🙂
These look great. I love how versatile stuffed peppers are.
Not sure why we don’t do it more often – such an easy and tasty meal to prepare. Have a happy day. 🙂
I love sausage stuffed anything! Great recipe and perfect in winter or summer!
Thanks bigfatnoodle – must say that sausages are already filled with lovely flavours versus plain ground meat. Have a super day. 🙂
Stuffed peppers are the best! I love the browned mushrooms and pork on top. Mmmm!
The little crunchy bits were an added bonus Caroline. Have a happy day. 🙂
I agree about the flavor of yellow peppers…they have a wonderful sweet flavor. I have made and like stuffed peppers but have never made them with sausage. Now I can’t wait to make these.
Think I will always use sausage as opposed to plain ground meat, it has so much more flavours to start with. have a super day. 🙂
–Mandy,
I swear, My Tummy is growling like crazy for these amazing looking peppers….
WOWWOWOWOW. x
Maybe you can get your pappa bear to make these for you Kim – bet his would be awesome! Have a happy day. 🙂 xo
I love a sausage stuffing in peppers. Mostly I see ground beef but I think the sausage adds a great flavor combined with the peppers. A very pretty presentation too!
Great minds I tell you 😉 I was just saying that the sausage adds more flavour versus normal ground meat. Have a super day. 🙂
Yum, Mandy! I love yellow peppers too, and the sausage filling looks delicious!
Thanks Celia, they were scrumptious. Have a super day. 🙂
My husband would flip for these! They look wonderful, tasty and colorful. Thanks Mandy – have a great week.
Thanks Tricia, hope your hubby enjoys! Have a great week too. 🙂
I’m drooling over these. They look sooo tasty! 🙂
Hope you get to make them soon. Have a happy day. 🙂
I used to stuff peppers with my mom.. but I never used sausage before. I must say, you’ve given me great ideas to take back to her. Love the recipe
I hope your mom enjoys the idea of using sausage Kay. Have a super day. 🙂
Those look delicious! I love the combination of sausage and bell peppers too. I have a hard time choosing between yellow, orange, and red ones. I love that they are available year round, and yes, stuffed peppers should be something we make during all seasons, not just summer.
– Michael
Think I will make them with the orange peppers next round Michael, just to compare the flavours. 🙂
