This week is orientation for my new job and it has been nuts! So, for today’s post I am doing a reshare of our vegetarian stuffed peppers that are amazing! You don’t even miss the meat! Enjoy!
I am a big meat eater (heck, look at me…). I am not big on vegetarian fare, but every once in awhile I like to try something new. I have never made stuffed peppers without some sort of meat… but, my ground turkey was outdated so I decided to try these meatless. Delicious. These vegetarian stuffed peppers are definitely going into the lineup at our house… make extras, they are even better the next day!
