This post concentrates on Red bell peppers which taste delicious however you eat them, and they are quite versatile too. These crunchy peppers can be eaten raw, where their sweetness and crunchy texture dominates. But they also work well in various dishes and recipes, and you may already have your own favourite recipe.
Eat them raw: just cut the bell pepper in half, remove the seeds, wash it, and then eat.
Stuffed bell pepper "boats": Cut a large bell pepper in half, add your preferred source of meat/protein, vegetables, and perhaps some cheese on top. Then bake in the oven until ready.
Stir-fry: make a stir-fry using long-sliced bell peppers, beansprouts, mushrooms, snow peas, and baby corn. This common ingredient mix works well with some soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Add meat if desired.
I hope you may enjoy one (or more) of these recipe suggestions
All the best Jan

Thank you for the stuffed red pepper recipes. I always have them in our refrigerator!
I tend to prefer green peppers.
Gracias por la receta se ve genial. Yo he hecho tomates rellenos pero no pimientos. Te mando un beso
I like them raw. I do not like them cooked. So raw it is.
...I love stuffed peppers!
I haven't made these in a few years, that sounds good, I will have to make some the next time I go to the grocery store :)
Oh red peppers - love them - so sweet it's almost like candy! My husband always laughs when I say that.:)
Lovely uses for delicious peppers!
Love stuffed peppers or capsicums as I call them..xx
Love cabbage rolls too, have you tried them?
Mmm... I love stuffed peppers!
Good subject, peppers do not know because clearly they have always produced me a little suspicion, I thought unfoundedly maybe they were somewhat indigestible, over time I accept them and I like their taste and contributions.
Best regards.
Peppers are a great food! Valerie
I enjoy stuffed peppers but also enjoy them in salads or incorporated into cooked meals. They're so versatile.
Thank you for this post. I make stuffed peppers a lot and I love them. So tasteful and great with cous cous and salat to go with the.
Happy springtime dear Jan. Wish you good days🥰💐
Haven´t had this in a long time. Ingo uses rice and mushrooms and... loads of cheese.
Hello,
I like the Red , Yellow and Orange Peppers. The stuffed peppers is a delicious meal.
Take care, have a happy day!
Ohhh nice post and wonderful recipes.
I haven't made stuffed peppers in ages. I'm thinking it's time. Thanks!
I've been grilling veggies. OUr girls love carrots and broccoli that way. I often grill peppers, too! Especially, now it's BBQ season.
I used to make these for my ex when we were married. I think I have made them once since. I enjoyed them but when I had acid reflux the peppers gave me heartburn. Maybe now I need to try them again.
One of my favorites, though I'm not fond of them cooked. But raw! AH! I like them filled with tuna or chicken salad or even something warm!
Used a red pepper tonight in fish tacos--yum!
Stuffed red peppers are on the menu here tonight. I have some turkey sausage I'll use, and some vegetables - mushrooms, onions, kale - and cheese. Your variations all look delicious!
Red and green peppers are very popular for stuffing here. I like them too, but I'm worried because of their size. I\m afraid they're genetically engineered as they are all big. Hard to find small to medium peppers at our grocery stores.
Yay for red peppers!
I buy red peppers only now. They are easier to digest as well.
And red pepper relish is the best!
Red peppers are always SO much sweeter. I love to eat them raw, but I also LOVE stuffed peppers, too.
I love red peppers! Excellent post! Thank you! Big Hugs!
good post. i love peppers , all colors and these look good with the veggies in them.
I love red peppers, both raw and cooked. xx
such tempting and delicious looking dish dear Jan
thank you specially for this recipe ,i loved this
blessings to you and family!
we love peppers and never eat green peppers anymore. the colored peppers are so much better, sweeter and have a much milder taste!!
Me encantan los pimientos. Besos.
Red bell peppers are so pretty, but as far as taste, I like them better while still green.
I used to make stuffed bell peppers, but I did not eat all the bell pepper that way. (I like it raw, or will eat it in chili)
Anyway, now I made a bell pepper casserole. All of us love it...and two or three of the kids friends back in their high school days loved it, too.
Yum! Love stuffed peppers ~ XX

We eat stuffed peppers quite frequently, especially when fresh produce is available locally. We have several variations of vegetarian fillings, all delicious, a couple Asian flavoured. It doesn't get much healthier than this!
