I love stuffed peppers. But my son doesn't like rice and wasn't a fan of the plain flavor of the tomato sauce. So I created these peppers knowing the flavors of BBQ bacon cheeseburger would appeal to him. I used orzo in place of rice. Needless to say he ate 2 and a half at dinner and has asked for all the leftovers to be his only! It was a nice kid friendly change but I still prefer the original. Although if my son has anything to say about it I will only make these from now on... I had much more filling than I thought left over and I used the extra to fill flour tortillas and we had burritos!
