Quick and easy Spicy Shrimp Stuffed Peppers jumpstarted with a Michael Angelo’s Meal Starter. Learn how to take a classic Italian style meal on a south of the border road trip!
![Spicy Shrimp Stuffed Peppers [Mexican-Style!]](https://www.homejobsbymom.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Spicy-Shrimp-Stuffed-Peppers-Mexican-Style.png)
I have been so busy lately. Work just seems to keep piling up—it’s like I take two steps forward, one step back.
I never feel like I can accomplish everything that I want to in a day. Between family, the house, and pets all on top of all the work-work I have to do the day is WAY too short.
I try to prioritize my day which often means I literally don’t have the time to be cooking a fancy meal. That’s not to say we don’t eat well because we do.
Meals just have to take 30 minutes or less, otherwise, I just can’t pull it off on a weeknight.
One of my favorite weeknight meals is Spicy Shrimp Stuffed Peppers [Mexican-Style!]. It’s just my style—tasy and quick with a kick!
Spicy Shrimp Stuffed Peppers [Mexican-Style!]
As a very busy parent, I need meals that are simple, quick, and realistically doable on a hectic weeknight. That’s why I’m loving my new friends at Michael Angelo’s—they offer all that and more.
Their frozen food line includes everything from single serve to family size, calzones to meal starters. All with a homemade taste and ingredients that you can actually pronounce.
![Spicy Shrimp Stuffed Peppers [Mexican-Style!]](https://www.homejobsbymom.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/michael-angelo-aisle.jpg)
They are conveniently located in the Walmart freezer section.
For this recipe, I jumpstarted my meal with Michael Angelo’s Spicy Shrimp Scampi Meal Starter. It makes this meal pop, featuring tender shrimp in a yummy spicy marinara sauce.
This meal is made nice and quick with the help of the microwave. I love that invention, don’t you?!
To twist things up a bit I took this authentic Italian-style meal south of the border. 
I kept Michael Angelo’s wholesome, simple ingredients with no artificial preservatives, flavors or colors intact—I just added some Mexican spices. It turned out great!
My grandfather loves this meal. I think it reminds him of the good old days where everything was homecooked and tasted like it—just like Michael Angelo’s!
Goes great with garlic bread or a fresh salad!
Try these Spicy Shrimp Stuffed Peppers today! They will have you eating a rewarding, quick meal—like you spent hours cooking but didn’t.
Also, these guys are freezer friendly!
To Freeze
Do everything the same except skip microwaving the peppers. Individually wrap the stuffed, raw peppers in foil or with another freezer safe method.
To Cook
Thaw in the refrigerator. Cook at 400 degrees for about 30 minutes. Yum!

December 19, 2018 at 11:59 pmThis looks delicious. I love Mexican food but don’t know too much about cooking it. I don’t eat it often either because it’s quite expensive here in South Africa. I might just give this a try! Obviously, I won’t get your brand of shrimp here, but I’m sure we have something similar.

December 20, 2018 at 6:45 amIt would be great with beef or chicken too

December 20, 2018 at 7:26 amYum yum yum. Everything about this recipe has me drooling. I love stuffed peppers and stuffing them with rice and shrimp makes them even better! Loved that tip about microwaving the peppers!

I had mini peppers last night though

February 8, 2019 at 12:15 pmI absolutely love Mexican food. However, it’s hard to find more authentic Mexican – most places serve Tex Mex. My favorite Mexican restaurant ever was an Oaxacan place in Los Angeles. Lots of mole!
Home Jobs By Mom
February 13, 2019 at 8:49 amI bet Los Angeles has really good Mexican food! There’s a lot of Tex Mex here in Texas of course but you still can find some authentic things.

YVONNE WOODSTOCK
March 2, 2019 at 6:19 amThe only Mexican food I like is 100% not spicy at all since I’m too big of a baby for even mildly spicy. I hate for anything to make my tongue feel even a hint of pinchy.
My husband LOVES Mexican food and he is happy if it’s so spicy he is sweating and eyes watery and face turning red, he is fine with that he likes it if it’s not that spicy too, he loves all of it.
These would be a good lunch for him for me to make for him to bring to work to lunch, which is one way I make sure he gets that kind of food he enjoys instead of for dinners since we like to eat dinner together.

March 2, 2019 at 5:55 pmI’m glad you love Mexican food too. It’s so good. If you like shrimp you could alter this to make it not spicy.
