Extraordinary Stuffed Peppers
Recipes » Main Dish » Stuffed Peppers
Tired of the same old stuffed green peppers. Here's a recipe with a mexican flair. Be warned, once you've had stuffed peppers like these, you'll never want your Mom's stuffed peppers again.
"These stuffed poblano chile peppers were incredible! I especially liked the spice combination, the use of spinach in the filling, and the added layer of flavor that comes from browned cheese. The only changes we made were to use a combination of cheeses...queso oaxaca, manchego and quesadilla with jalapeno, and to add some fresh cilantro as garnish. Next time, I may substitute Mexican-style chorizo for all or part of the ground beef." - sgrishkaYield: 12 Ready in 1 hours, 15 minutes
