stuffed sweet peppers
Stuffed peppers are one of my favorite meals, steaming the peppers and precooking the rice saves a lot of cooking time and unpredictable results of the rice and peppers. My wife doesn't eat beef so I often use turkey or chicken for the meat. When I am cooking the meal just for myself or friends I like to mix pork and beef for the meat.
