You're sure to enjoy this tasty twist on traditional stuffed peppers. Crisp-tender pepper cups hold a colorful filling that gets south-of-the-border flavor from salsa and cumin. They're fast to assemble using convenience items such as instant rice and frozen corn. -Angie Dierikx, State Center, Iowa

This was my first attempt at stuffed peppers. They turned out AWESOME! I had 3 left over and was leaving town for the weekend, so I offered them to a neighbor so they didn't spoil while I was gone. Got rave reviews on the left overs!

such a good recipe-im doing it in the oven though-im not a big into microwave cooking... has a great flavor-didn't put the jalapeno's in-have 3 little kids that wouldnt like it. i also added extra cheese very good! everytime i make stuffed green peppers i usually try a new recipe to try something different but think ill stick to this one for awhile :)

This has been a favorite since I got this magazine issue in 1999. They are really easy & delicious as well. I like how cooking them in the microwave doesn't make the pepper cups soggy. They turn out very crisp tender. I drain the plate at the end of cooking, so any excess liquid doesn't make them soggy. I have also found that cutting the peppers the short way, rather than length wise makes them stay up better on the plate. Yummy!
