True story: when I make Jack O’ Peppers in October, with cute little faces carved into the bell pepper, my son devours them. And yet, when I make the exact same recipe later this winter, he will loudly proclaim "I don't like stuffed peppers!" Welp, it’s the little things, I guess. And right now, we should all take comfort in little things that bring joy to you and your loved ones.
This is a comforting and make-ahead dinner that really feels like an all-in-one: Vegetables? ✅Pasta? ✅Ground turkey? ✅Cheese? ✅ All together, it offers a perfectly balanced seasonal bite, and it's a meal that can be taken to share with family and friends. Amongst the terror and suffering in Israel and Gaza, I try to remember what I can do, and that includes nourishing others with food. After all, food is love, and this is a certainly a time where everyone could use a little more love.
