Mexican Stuffed Bell Peppers

Finished Recipe

I was in the mood for Mexican food, but I didn’t want tacos since we had made them a few nights prior.  I was doing a little recipe grazing, and stumbled upon this one. I am so happy I did too. It was so easy and really fulfilled my want for Mexican food. It also sent my husband for seconds and thirds!  I am not sure if I didn’t fill the peppers to their fullest, or if the peppers I bought were small, but I had enough leftover for another meal! This was a win! In the freezer they go! 

Enjoy!
