Full of flavor and then some! I was very happy with the way these guys turned out. I just put items in my pantry together, stuffed the peppers and cooked for about 3-4 hours on low heat. It was a breeze to make and didn't heat up the kitchen. Which is always a plus in my book.
I served the peppers with sour cream on the side. Very filling and tasty! Enjoy!
