“This nutritious yet economical summer meal makes the most of my home-grown peppers. I like to top it with sour cream and serve with tortilla chips and salsa, but it’s wonderful on its own, too.” —Kimberly Coleman, Columbia, South Carolina

Made this last night - the whole family loved it. Used left over brown rice & taco seasoning instead of rice/pasta mix, omitted the water & added chopped mushrooms, corn & mixed veggies. Used Orange Bell Peppers as they were on sale.

It was good. Think I prefer it without cheese. My husband loved it. So I would make it for him.

Excellent! I just made stuffed peppers a couple of days ago, but had to make them again when I saw this recipe. For those that find that green peppers may be bitter, blanch them before you stuff them.

Rice-A-Roni® Mexican Style flavor! It blends rice and pasta with tomatoes, green chili peppers, red bell pepper and paprika.

Made this recipe with red bell peppers instead of green because we find that green peppers can be somewhat bitter. Excellent recipe!

I don't like recipes that use mixes because eventually they are discontinued. This one is really good as long as the mix is available.
