I have never found a recipe for stuffed peppers that I liked. I decided that I would have to make my own. The easy peasy part comes from using pre-packaged flavored rice mix and the sauce only utilizes three ingredients! I'm all for tasty, easy and flavor!! Nothing better than to be able to throw things together quickly for a delicious meal. Family tested and very much approved. I don't generally measure out amounts when I cook, so some of the ingredients are approximations, feel free to adgust to your taste.
