Easy Stuffed Peppers

This is one of those recipes you think, Eww! There is no way that is good! Well you would be wrong. I got this one from my father in law. He uses it for stuffed jalapenos, but they were just too hot for me. I decided to use fresh green bell peppers from our garden and TA DA! So yummy!


Stuffed Peppers

1 package breakfast sausage
1 box  Zatarain's Dirty Rice
1 can Cheese Whiz (yeah, I know, just trust me)
6 green bell pepper (could use any color bell or just about any pepper you like)

~ Cook sausage, drain
~ Cook rice as directed
~ Mix sausage, rice and cheese whiz together

~ Cut peppers in half longways, take our seeds.

Thai Cucumber Salad

My hubby and kids got me a cilantro pot for Mother's Day. Cilantro is basically the best thing every grown on this earth. I LOVE IT! The plant has taken off quite well, so we have lots. We also have cucumbers growing in our garden. Hubby was surfing recipes to find something we could make for a 4th of July cookout. He found one and it is delish!

1 T. salt
1/2 c.. white sugar
1/2 c. rice wine vinegar
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
1/4 c. cilantro (or more!)
1/2 c. chopped peanuts


So yum!
