So, today is Mother’s Day. A lot of moms say that the last thing they want to do on Mother’s Day is cook. Personally, I really wanted to cook – I just wanted to be left alone by everyone in my family when I did it. I also wanted to serve the meal to my family and not hear one complaint about it. Both of those wishes were granted, and it was amazing! My husband is really not a bell pepper fan, but I took advantage of the holiday and made these Chorizo Stuffed Peppers mostly just for myself. Even though he doesn’t care for the peppers, he actually really enjoyed these, or maybe he just liked the queso he drenched them in?!
