Chicken Stuffed Peppers with White Beans
Stuffed Peppers are a favorite in my house! Some of my most popular are these Turkey Stuffed Peppers and Sante Fe Turkey Stuffed Peppers. I came up with this easy recipe when I had some leftover chicken breast. You can also use chicken breast from a rotisserie or add some breasts to the slow cooker and cook 4 hours low until it shreds easily with two forks. Some of my favorites are, Chicken Taco Chili Stuffed Peppers, and of course the popular Stuffed Pepper Soup!
Once in a while I like to go through the archives and re-share older recipes I created back before I had any cookbooks. This is one of them, it’s simple and a great way to use up leftover chicken breasts. Made with chicken, white beans, bell peppers topped with cheese. They’re high protein and high fiber and delicious for dinner.
