Easy recipe that’s perfect for a quick and delicious meal with a burst of sweet and spice!
I’m a big believer that breakfast doesn’t have to be boring, and it also doesn’t have to be complicated. Do you know what you’re making for breakfast/brunch this weekend? You may want to try this recipe for egg stuffed sweet peppers, served over a tomatillo sauce and topped with cheese, diced tomato, and microgreens, all organic vegetables from Taproot Farm. You can even simply stuff the peppers with eggs and serve with whatever toppings or base you want. I hope you all enjoy this fun and flavorful recipe as much as we have. Happy breakfasting/brunching! 🙂
