A Note about various peppers I used
Below you will find that I used many different kinds of peppers for these stuffed pepper recipes. That doesn’t mean that if you don’t have poblano peppers or hatch chiles that you can’t make them. These recipes will work with any kind of pepper.
If all you have are bell peppers that is fine too. However since bell peppers are often larger, there may be a need for more stuffing mixture. As always, please feel free to ask me if you have any questions about pepper choices. I’ll be glad to help you!
