Stuffed peppers - What would you put with them to make a meal?

[Pascha]

MIL has very kindly sent one each over for dinner tonight (she overenthusiastically made lots and they need eating) but I have no idea how to bulk them out for a full plate. They are full of some cous-cous-y type thing.

[noisytoys]

they are a meal in themselves in this house they are so filling

[SPBInDisguise]

Bread? Some vegetable ttbats not in them. Sweeycorn or peas?

[Pascha]

Could do some bread. Some salad, maybe? I agree they are filling but

A) I am breastfeeding and have the appetite of a horse and
B) DH will look at them askance after a hard day at work and ask me what the hell his mother was playing at and where is the rest of it.

Looking online suggests mash which seems a little heavy to me.

Garlic bread and salad?

[drwitch]

do you mean one pepper between you or two. If it was one half each you will STARVE if bf. I always overcater but would probably serve then with some kind of beany/meaty/cheesey thing or an omellete and a green salad

[MrsFriskers]

A lamb chop, salad, hummous, tzatzicki, and flatbread?

[CitizenOscar]

Salad and maybe some roast potatoes if you're really hungry. I might add some cheese to the top of the stuffed pepper too. Maybe some green beans?

[Snazzynewyear]

Sausages, chicken pieces? Think of them as a veg accomp.

[WowOoo]

rice or couscous or jacket potato and salad.

Gorgeous with some grilled chicken. off to get some out of the freezer

[Pascha]

I am STARVING all the time anyway . already couscous in them. Could do some wedges? Meaty beany cheesy thing sounds possible.

[Pascha]

It's a whole one each but they are not huge.

[PatriciaHolm]

Chicken kebabs?

I would make potato wedges, or mashed potato, and serve them with greens/a salad. I often make them and we have them with the aforementioned. I have a great big hungry farmer to feed and the combination of the above fills him up. Mind you, I do tend to do 2 peppers per person, so 4 halves each and each half stuffed iyswim.

Lucky you - I love stuffed peppers! Especially when they have cheese grated over the top and then in the oven to go all melty and bubbly! Delicious!

[bigbadbarry]

Rice, if they weren't already full of couscous, so, lamb chops and poss some sort of butter bean tomatoey stewy thing

[Pascha]

I found some cheesey potato gratin-ey thing in the freezer so with that and some green beans I think I've got it. Meat free it is!

Yy Dragon I would eat 4 halves all to myself too for starters

[Pascha]

I might go and put spicey bean stew on the meal plan for next week though.

[RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie]

I like them with new potatoes (boiled or roasted) and salad.

[FeeFoo]

I like them served alongside grilled chicken, drizzled with lemon and freshly ground black pepper over the lot... Yum!

More good ideas. Thank you. I think they are lovely ideas for summertime.
