Pressure-Cooker Spicy Sausage and Blue Cheese Peppers image

I inherited an old pressure cooker from my aunt many years ago, before I was married. I made this delicious recipe often back then, and I have since incorporated a few easy tweaks to adapt it to my modern pressure cooker. These pressure-cooker stuffed bell peppers are quick and easy, and make a delicious meal. -Joan Hallford, North Richland Hills, Texas

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover sausage. I had some Italian sausage that I needed to use up, and this recipe was the perfect solution. The peppers and blue cheese really complemented the sausage. I'll definitely be making this again.

This dish is pure comfort food. The sausage and peppers are hearty and flavorful, and the blue cheese adds a touch of sophistication. I served it with a side of crusty bread, and it was the perfect meal for a cold night.

I'm not a huge fan of blue cheese, but I decided to give this recipe a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The blue cheese was not overpowering at all, and it really added a unique flavor to the dish. I'll definitely be making this again.
