MEAT LOAF-STUFFED PEPPERS
With my husband-who won't eat the same thing twice-I've had to learn to be creative with leftovers (around here, we call it "recycled food"). I put this recipe together to use up leftover meat loaf. When it's dressed up with homegrown peppers, he doesn't know he really is getting yesterday's main course! Actually, leftovers are both coming and going in this recipe-if I have any peppers left over, I use them to make my spaghetti sauce. Although we live close to Houston, there's a pasture near our house and we can hear the cows that graze there. We have two sons, 4 and 2.
