Mummy’s Fast & Easy

OK, finally the new post is here!

And the recipe is one of our favourite recipes to cook anytime of the year.
I think it’s really suitable for the freezing weather outside at the moment, these yummy peppers will definitely warm your heart and combined with a glass of good red, you wouldn’t mind the cold outside.
I used minced pork with rice and vegetables. If you prefer, substitute with beef. Vegetarians – skip the meat.
I’ve tried all of the above options but my favorite is definitely the one with the pork. Yummy!

Oh, and my 18 -month old loved them too!

Here’s what you need.
