Stuffed Bell Peppers + a Low Carb Option {Granny's Recipe}

Stuffed Bell Peppers , succulent red, orange, and yellow bell peppers stuffed with a flavorful ground beef and fluffy rice, topping them with ketchup or a sweet, tangy sauce. My mother enjoyed making Stuffed Bell Pepper as much as she enjoyed seeing my husband eat them. I only remember my mother using the green bell peppers, but the different colored ones are so readily available now that I usually use them along with some green ones too. The yellow, red, and orange ones are a little sweeter, and my daughter, Jennifer prefer them over the green ones.

Curry Rice Salad

Curry Rice Salad , fluffy white rice, yellow curry powder, and bright English peas are the perfect dish to use up leftover rice.     Curry Rice Salad Using Leftover Rice The joy of this recipe is how simple it is to make.  Using leftover rice is always a plus when needing to get a meal on the table in minutes.  If you have no rice cooked, cook it the night before and heat it to make the salad. When I have leftover rice, one of the first things I think about is making this cold rice salad.
