I’ve recently started back on the Weight Watchers journey, because quarantine has not been good to me or my waistline and this program has always been one I have been successful at. I’ve been successful mostly because, I can eat what I want (if I track it and it fits into my daily points) and I absolutely love the recipes! I had recently been searching for one for stuffed peppers to make in my Instant Pot. Check out this easy and delicious Weight Watchers Instant Pot Stuffed Peppers Recipe.
