Makeover Sausage-Stuffed Peppers image

I started preparing stuffed peppers only because my husband loves them so much. I was surprised to discover how much I enjoyed them, too. I prefer yellow or red bell peppers for mine, since they have a sweeter, milder flavor than green. -Tami Kuehl, Loup City, Nebraska
