Smoked gouda again… what can I say? I had some left over from the Smoked Gouda and Apricot Grilled Cheese and the flavor is definitely growing on me. These stuffed peppers are perfecto for fall!

Smoked Gouda and Apricot Grilled Cheese

Quinoa Stuffed Peppers
This recipe is definitely a fan favorite– I’ve made it at least 15 times. Even your hard-core “a meal is not a meal without meat” friends will be pleased with these hearty and fulfilling peppers.
