What You'll Need

  • 2 bell peppers (any color), split lengthwise and cleaned

  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Thanks for your comment. Don't forget to share!

I grew up eating stuffed peppers, since my mom made them all the time,but she made it with a meatloaf like mixture. And, I loved them. Unfortunately, now I don't get to eat them often because my family hates peppers, but this recipe reminded me of how much I love them. I have never had stuffed peppers made this way, but it does look good.

Add some ground meat and rice to make excellent MOM meal!
