    These Taco Stuffed Peppers make the perfect weeknight meal. Green bell peppers are stuffed with rice and beans, cheese, and salsa for a southwestern twist on a classic favorite. These Mexican stuffed peppers are full of spicy and savory flavor. You can also freeze them in a freezer-safe container, and store for up to 4 months.
