The Best Stuffed Bell Peppers even Kids will Love

Bingeing On TV 

I love watching the Food Network. One of my favorites is Ree Drummond’s recipes as they are easy to prepare and economical. One of the recipes that I decided to try out were the appetizers Stuffed Bell Peppers.

This recipe was put to good use when we had a small gathering at our home. Two of my closest friends recently celebrated their birthdays so we decided to have it at our home. They also have kids so it would be a good time for the kids to bond as well.

I remembered I took note of the recipe and I was looking for something that I haven’t cooked. Bell peppers also seemed unique so I decided to try it out. Also, I wanted to test if it will be a hit with the kids, too. Well, I rarely have problems feeding my sons. Maybe because I trained them to eat what I prepared on the table. Not to brag but my cooking skills is also a big factor LOL!

So, I took out my baking pan and rack set and started prepping!

Time To Party With The Stuffed Bell Peppers!

The Stuffed Bell Peppers were a hit! I shared the appetizers recipe with my friends as they’d also like to try it. What’s surprising is that even the kids loved it. I admit, it’s something unique yet deliciously satisfying.

Another satisfying food party! Try it and comment how it went. Please share this recipe with your friends, too!

    Easy to put together. The filling was super yummy. It looks like you have way too much filling for the peppers, but if you stuff it in well, the peppers can actually fit it all! Fave appetizer! and snack too!
