Hidden Veggie & Green Pepper Casserole
My Mom shared some of her leftover Undone Stuffed Pepper Casserole with us from Kraft Foods and it was fantastic. My picky eater even loved it. Because I’ve got to run with what works for Mr. Picky-Pants, I did a little doctoring to add some more veggies and make it a sure win for future meals. What follows is my doctored version of Kraft’s original. It has continued to be a win for us at home. 🙂
