Stuffed Roasted Peppers
What I like about this Stuffed Roasted Peppers recipe is that you can assemble and then put into the freezer for future use. We grow so many peppers that we need to always come up with new recipes. Another great feature is, other than cheese, this is a pure vegetarian meal – with the cost of meat that is great. If you have a garden, as we do, this is a great chance to make a meal from your hard work. You will also know how the vegetables were grown!! Try using red and yellow peppers for some extra color.
