Stuffed Peppers for Two image

My husband likes stuffed peppers, but my original recipe made too many servings. I cut it down to accommodate just the two of us. It helps to use a small casserole dish so the peppers won't tip over while they bake. For color, I serve steamed carrots to round out the meal perfectly. -Elaine Carpenter, Horseshoe Bay, Texas
