From: my Grandma
I interviewed my Grandma for this recipe.
So, my grandma learned her recipe from her mom in Buffalo, NY. She learned the recipe from helping her mother make it. Their stuff peppers use bread which is an Italian spin on the Spanish stuffed peppers which had either cod or chicken for the main ingredient. My Grandma says that this is a very good way to get rid of bread and an easy, tasty recipe. This recipe has been passed down from her mother’s-mother to her mother, to my grandma, then to me. The bread stuffed peppers came from southern Italy.
