STUFFED CAPSICUM

Stuffed bell pepper had been on my to-cook list for quite sometime. A perfect vegetarian meal loaded with goodness of protein, veggies and yummy ingredients creating a balanced meal for everyone. Quick Tip #  As kids we used to eat the stuffing and discard the pepper skin because it tasted bland. So my mom started to sprinkle the inside of the empty capsicum with salt before stuffing. After de-seeding the bell peppers, sprinkle some salt on the inside and microwave for 2-3 minutes. This will reduce the cooking time in half and while eating stuffed capsicum, skin will not taste bland.
