Traditionally stuffed peppers are made with some sort of ground meat. This recipe for Lentil Stuffed Peppers goes vegetarian with lentils instead of beef.

It does exactly what it claims.
I have a dairy. allergy, so I rely on these pills to supply most of the calcium my body requires — and they come through.
This product is hard to find and this was the only place that had it. Thank you !!

My nails are strong and growing!
helps with balance
I used this formula on my cat that had a problem with her gums. The vet saw her twice for this, and gave her an antibiotic both times to help with the inflammation. The day after her second injection her tooth fell out. So this was a tooth problem, not a gum problem. I have had luck with about half of the homeopathic preparations I have used over the years. This preparation is designed for gums, not infected teeth, so I still stick by homeopathic remedies as a non-toxic option for care for both me and my cats.
