But like others, I found the flavor to be bland. | | Neutral | Big_Red | On Dec 17, 2004, Big_Red from Bethelridge, KY (Zone 6a) wrote: Stuffing type, bright red with orange stripes running down it's sides.

I was planning to offer these to an upscale eatery,but they didn't grow uniform in size enough for commercial sales for me.Individual salad portions for bridal luncheons was what I had in mind,but there were too many small ones.
They do make a nice cup for salads and if you can't digest the bell peppers,then they will stuff and bake with your favorite stuffed pepper recipe.
The flavor is bland,but as the cup makes a great container for something else,I feel like that is not quite as important. |
