Fiesta Stuffed Peppers image

I don't really care for stuffed green peppers, but I have found that I really like them with yellow, orange, or red peppers. The salsa gives these an added kick. If desired, you can sprinkle with grated cheese during the last 10 or 15 minutes of cooking.

These peppers were amazing! The filling was flavorful and moist, and the peppers were cooked just right. I will definitely be making these again.

The peppers were a little mushy for my liking, but the filling was delicious. I would definitely make these again, but I would cook the peppers for a little less time next time.

These stuffed peppers were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them! I think I would have liked them better if I had used a different type of chili powder.

The peppers were a little undercooked for my liking, but the filling was delicious. I would definitely make these again, but I would cook the peppers for a little longer next time.

These stuffed peppers were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used a different type of cheese, or if I had added some more spices to the filling.

These peppers were easy to make and turned out great! I used ground turkey instead of beef, and they were still very flavorful. I also added a little bit of diced jalapeno for some extra spice. Definitely a keeper!
