Figure 1. Before hitting the grill: stuffed mini bell peppers. These peppers were stuffed with a mixture of cream cheese, Greek yogurt, green onions, shallots, cilantro, and lime juice and were absolutely amazing. (Note: I followed the above linked recipe exactly except I subbed Greek yogurt for the sour cream. Worked beautifully).
Figure 2. Saturday night's dinner: jerk chicken and stuffed mini bell peppers, long grain & wild rice, and roasted broccoli.
Figure 3. Sunday night's dinner: spring vegetable carbonara and a lemony arugula salad. I ate so much of this pasta (because it was good and I was just in that mood) that, when I finally stopped, I was stuffed. Fitting, no?
Stuffed peppers seem like such a summery thing to me... I can't wait to make them myself!
