Trader Joe’s New Item: Rustico Sweet Long Peppers: Gourmet stuffed peppers ideas

(May 2024)

Saw these today at my local Trader Joe’s. These long peppers caught my eye and looked really good, though I didn’t get to try them yet. They say these are sweet, not hot, some gourmet variety for a long pepper. Most peppers I see shaped like this have been of the hot variety but not this one.

One idea for these is they would be perfect for stuffing and I found the growers website and they have a number of recipes for stuffed peppers which look and sound pretty pretty good.

I would expect these are one offs so if you want too try them and you see them, probably buy asap while they are in stock, which I expect is Limited.

Two recipes on the growers website looked good. One, stuffed with ground turkey and rice and the other a Moroccan one with quinoa and vegetables.
