Why is this a survival recipe?

A sausage stuffed bell pepper is one of the easiest dinners I know how to make. I use red bell peppers when I want something sweeter, and green when I want a bite to my meal.

This is a great way to use leftover rice, meats, and sauces. This is a perfect leftovers dish and it’s so easy to take for lunch the next day. In this recipe I use sausage, but I’ve also made this recipe with ground beef, ground turkey, and an Alfredo sauce instead of a red sauce.
