Notes
- You can make these stuffed peppers ahead and refrigerate them until ready to use. I would suggest you arrange them on a plate and cover it with clingfilm to keep them as fresh as possible.
- Plus, they are best served cold anyway, it makes them more refreshing and delicious, perfect for a hot summer's day.
- But if you want to serve them straight away, that's absolutely fine too, as the cheese and sour cream would have been refrigerated before hand anyway.
