This dish was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I'll try making it again with milder peppers next time.

The shrimp stuffing was a bit bland for my taste, but the poblano peppers were roasted perfectly. I'll try adding some more spices to the filling next time.

I've made this dish several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The shrimp and poblano peppers are a great combination, and the sauce is delicious. I usually serve it with rice or quinoa.

These poblano peppers were a hit! The shrimp filling was flavorful and juicy, and the poblanos were roasted to perfection. I served them with a side of rice and beans, and they were the perfect comfort food for a cold night.
