I got a good recipe for stuffed peppers off the spark people website but wondering what to eat with it? What sides would work with a stuffed pepper??

    I wouldn't even bother with sides - they're all inside the pepper :)

    But if you must maybe saute some leftover pepper slices :)

    I love stuffed peppers!!! I usually have mashed redskins with it. I just put a little butter in them.

    I would say rice, but usually that is in stuffed peppers, so I'm gonna say salad

    I *heart* stuffed peppers and consider them a meal in and of themselves.

    It depends on what is in the stuffed peppers. If it's a rice-less stuffed pepper, I will usually serve it on a little bed of white/wild rice. If there's rice already in the stuffed pepper, just eat it as is. :-)

    My favorite is to make my 'glorified' mashed potatoes. I make regular mashed potatoes. Then I grate up carrot and put it in a small bowl, add a little water and cover with saran wrap. Stick it in the microwave for just a little bit. The carrot steams in the bowl. Then mix in with your mashed potatos, add a little butter and you have a tasty new side dish!!! :)

    I never liked the way the peppers cook when you stuff them. So, I turn it into a casserole. chop up the peppers and mix all your ingredients into the casserole. no sides needed.
