Stuffed Bell Peppers

These are stuffed bell peppers made without dairy, eggs, or nuts. You can even make them vegan. We love these in our family because you can add a variety of veggies, beans, rice, and/or meats, and they taste great baked inside a giant bellpepper. These are easy to accomodate any allergy since you can put whatever you want in them.
