Last month I came up with a rice dish completely from scratch and thought that it would be good as a stuffed green pepper filling so I gave it a try. I wasn’t really happy with the result. I felt like it was missing something and it was too tomato-y. My husband said it tasted like stuffed green peppers to him. If you try it, let me know what changes you make. I’d like to try again.

I think it looks really good! I should give your recipe a shot. My last attempt at stuffed peppers bombed and I haven’t made them since. Probably because I over cooked them. *sigh*

I love the taste of adobo, so I wonder if I’d like that. It sure looks good!
