A zesty twist on traditional stuffed peppers. The whole family loved them!!

- 1 box Chicken Flavored Rice-a-Roni

Preheat oven to 350F.
Cut tops off peppers, remove seeds and membranes. Boil in salted boiling water for 4 minutes. Remove into an ice bath, then drain upside down on paper towels.

I found your recipe while looking for inspiration. I have some extra peppers, and some chili – think I will combine the chili with cooked rice, stuff the peppers and top with mexican shredded cheese (all in my frig this very minute!)

Thank you for the inspiration. I had 4 bell peppers that I was going to eat with hummus. Publix had a two for one Chi-Chis taco meat on sale. I added Spanish rice, a can of black beans and some olives to it and topped with shredded cheese. I had forgotten how much I liked stuffed peppers and I didn’t make them because they seemed like a lot of trouble. You made it seem easy, down and dirty. Thanks.
