Seems to me, if anyone has a health problem, they should know what they can and can not eat without expecting someone to add the nutritional values to every recipe. If it's not on your diet, don't cook it or figure a way to substitute ingredients you can have.

I tried this recipe and it was simple and good. I think it is healthier than the usual stuffed peppers that my mom makes.

I am a Weight Watchers member and I need to know the nutritional values of any meals that I prepare.

I too have a diabetic husband. It would be appreciated if you would start posting the nutritional values please. Judith

Many of the recipes sound good but because my husband is diabetic & I follow Weight watchers I need to know the nutritional values.
