I'm going to try making these peppers with different fillings next time. I think they would be great with a vegetarian filling or a seafood filling.

These peppers are a great make-ahead meal. I made them the night before and they were just as good the next day.

These stuffed peppers were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.
