INGREDIENTS
•
My grandmother always made THE BEST stuffed peppers.
•
They took hours to bake...such a special treat!
•
She left her recipe with me, and I was determined make these doable as an 'everyday' dinner option...by precooking the ingredients, as it cuts an entire hour off the bake time!
•
Enjoy!
