My dad is the type of cook that would just throw things together without really measuring and whatever he was making would come out amazing!
I had my dad give me this stuffed green pepper recipe so that I could make them as close as I could to his original creations.
My dad’s name is Don, so in honor of him I named these Don’s Stuffed Green Peppers!
I love it when we have an abundance of green peppers growing in our garden because it gives me the opportunity to make this stuffed green pepper recipe often.
I tried these on my new son in law and he absolutely fell in love with them. Hope you will enjoy them as much as I have throughout the years.
