Roasted Spicy Stuffed Peppers Recipe


Roasted Spicy Stuffed Peppers Recipe
I had to have the Bulgar Wheat brought to me by a friend but it was worth the wait. I also only used Red peppers, as couldn't find yellow ones. This was translated from a Spanish cookbook and altered for our tastes.

Very interesting recipe. Love all the ingredients, so it has to be delicious! :)


The dressing elevates this dish to new levels. I find bulgar can be dry sometimes but this preparation was delicious. I would have to recommend the extra step in roasting the peppers, it makes all the difference in the flavor. Much more intense and very well liked by picky eater 1 and picky eater 2. Nice post.
