Most of Eastern Europe is familiar with this dish and many regions have their own versions.
It's tasty, it's nutritious and also a perfect meal for your lunch box!
Stuffed peppers always look spectacular and colorful. Due to the heat treatment, the stuffing has time to soak up the flavor of the peppers and the sauce, whether it is broth, cream, tomato or sour cream sauce. Mmmm…!
The most common filling is minced beef or chicken with or without rice, but you can get vegetarian options, as well, say, with cheese or vegetables. And they are no less tasty!
