I haven't had stuffed bell peppers since my mom passed and as for lighter options stuff it
Stuffed cabbage rolls were one of my favorites.
Corned beef and cabbage is a bland abomination that no one in Ireland would ever pick to eat when there’s a good curry or spice bag on the menu.
/scratches head … i am a bit perplexed as how these have "faded into history." Stuffed bell peppers? Had that about two months ago. Spinach Dip? Still on menus across the nation. Swedish meatballs? Um, have you been to IKEA lately? Shrimp cocktail? I make this every holiday and it is on the menu of every upscale steakhouse. Chicken a la King? We have this several times a year. Frito Pie? This is made quite often in Arizona, Texas and other places. I would continue, but you get my drift. I guess we in the West didn't let these fade into history.
We still have stuffed bell peppers, goulash, spinach dip, frito pie , Cajun chicken sweedish meatballs, I suppose we're just stuck in the past ? Nope, not at all, we're forced to stretch our worthless dollars at the grocery store, thanks to the policies coming out of Washington they're trying to starve us out. I mean nearly $5/ lb for ground beef is ridiculous. My wife and I are on social security and the cost of living adjustment does nothing when inflation just gobbles it up. Thank God he still sees that I can put a couple deer and an occasional wild hog in the freezer. I also Cann as much stuff as I can, jellies, preserves etc.
You should do a video on DEPRESSION ERA FOODS that would be an ENORMOUS help to a younger audience in stretching their grocery money.
BTW, many , many casseroles were born out of necessity during the great depression
