AUNTIE'S STUFFED GREEN PEPPERS
My little Polish Aunt Virgie made this years ago and it was my favorite meal. I remember helping her make the meatballs while my Uncle went to the bakery for warm rye bread. A wonderful meal shared with family! If green peppers are not a favorite of yours cabbage can be used instead.
