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.
