Stuffed bell peppers are huge on Pinterest right now. I decided to give the trend my own spin and make Taco Stuffed Bell Peppers. I’ve had a variety of stuffed peppers, but I think this recipe is my favorite. It’s simple and comes together quickly for busy nights while being packed full of flavor. In fact, I doubled the recipe, and froze a few for the next couple of weeks when I need a quick meal. Do you have a recipe for stuffed bell peppers?
Did you know more than 28,000 of Arkansas’ farms raise beef cattle?
