What is more, the Baked Stuffed Capsicum tastes even better than it looks, so your expectations are sure to be surpassed.

Baked stuffed capsicum.. the risotto stuffing is so creamy and cheesy.. the capsicum has a nice crunch in every bite.. this is best as a starter.. serve it just when out of the oven..
