Orzo stuffed peppers ~ they are so easy (just 5 ingredients) and SO DELICIOUS!  And healthy to boot!  I crave them constantly and am making them tonight

Do you have any easy recipes you love to make?

And as a funny side note, I am so excited to make them today that I had a dream about them last night...but in my dream, DH decided to make them for us and he used spaghetti instead of orzo

That looks amazing. I'm always looking for new recipes - thanks for sharing!

I love Ina's minestrone. It makes a huge amount, so I usually freeze half. Which is so nice to have on hand.

laurensc927 ~ Let me know how you like them!

I like to make a double batch and freeze some, too...they thaw/reheat nicely!

That looks tasty! I keep wanting to make different varieties of stuffed peppers but H hates stuffed things.

This made me LOL!

Well my favorite thing to make lately is Healthy Butternut Squash soup
Peel and quarter one large butternut squash, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt and bake @450 for 1 hour
In another pan, add 4 cups chicken broth or veggie broth (I use organic) and chop 1 onion, boil until tender.
Add the butternut squash and simmer for another 5 minutes
Remove from heat
Add lots of fresh ginger (I usually add about 8 big thumb sized slices)
Add a little cumin, little more sea salt, pepper
Puree with a hand held thingy until it's smooth. Yum

I usually add a little butter when I reheat to serve but that's optional.

I made cheesy beef/rice enchiladas the other day but I used all low fat/non-fat ingredients and I replaced the white rice with quinoa. MH didnt notice until the second bite and he got all serious and was like "what. is. that?" And I told him and even played the quinoa Bud Light commercial for him but he didn't believe me. He said it looked like what an octopus would have inside its tentacles if you cut it open.. His mom did me no favors by feeding him only meat and potatoes.

Those peppers look delicious! I've been obsessed with the How Sweet It Is blog for the past year or so. **Just a warning if you do check out the blog, some of the posts may have triggers but she's put most of those posts in her crumbs page, not the general recipe posts - just don't visit if you're having a bad IF day.** This recipe is one of my all time favorites.

Let me know if I need to add any other warnings to this post. I'm new and want to be sure to learn the correct protocol!

Mmmmm ... Sounds delish!

This is what I made for dinner tonight. It's so satisfying and healthy - especially if you're avoiding sugar/carbs.

I make stuffed peppers WAY too much but I can't stop. My latest favorite healthy version uses Quinoa, spicy diced tomatoes, ground chicken sausage and mozzarella.

Also, stuffed peppers with shaved steak and pepper jack cheese

I leave you with Stuffed Pepper Soup. Rachel Ray's recipes. BOOM! You're welcome.
