Grannymar,
This sounds deliciously yummy but…
I don’t like being told to “get stuffed” 😥
Steph,
Are you a pepper? 😆
Ooh I’d forgotten about stuffing capsicum! Can I dispense with the sultanas, eating them is like nails on a blackboard . . .the rest sounds pretty yum and no carbs! Yay!
One of my favorite meals to make. I never used Sultana’s though. The almonds are a nice touch.
Chop the stalk end off and then use it as a cap…do you have a vegan version?
I’ll explain why some time later.
BTW I love the almonds idea….
The cut off caps put on top look like French berets!!

PS chopped mushrooms and minced eggplant can be be used in the veggie version.
@Baino – I have several recipes for stuffed peppers…. I might come back to them again.
@Darlene – I love a dish that I can prepare and stick in the oven, giving me time to clear up before I sit down to eat. 😀
@Magpie – I am sure I have a vegan version somewhere, I must look it up.
@WWW – Thanks for the idea.
It sounds so good I’ve always used hamburg and never thought about ground steak…I’m trying it this week.
