MY COLORED BELL PEPPERS STUFFED with SALMON and COD FISH

Of course, you don’t need to stuff bell peppers with ground beef all the time. Honestly, the sky is the limit. I have stuffed bell peppers with any kind of seafood, pork, chicken, beef, cooked yellow rice with chicken, other vegetable such as mashed sweet potatoes or mashed russet or red potatoes with bacon. Today, I chose seafood.
