For our Anniversary a few years ago we decided to go to Garden Grill in Epcot. They are always changing the menu every few months so we weren’t sure what was going to be offered at that time. We were told the veggie option was all you can eat Stuff Poblano Peppers and our choice of sides (note: this contain dairy). It sounded really good so we were excited to try it out. The Poblano peppers were AMAZING absolutely amazing!!!
I started thinking about how good that meal was and then I got a really strong craving for them so of course we had to make them our version and vegan style. I was thrilled to see how easy they are to make and how delicious they tasted. Poblano peppers are a bit on the spicy side (at least to me who is a wimp when it comes to spicy) so you can always use regular bell peppers for this as well if you’d like.
I think this is going to be a must make all the time now. Yes it’s that good.
