Pepper stuffed with salad is a vibrant dish of Bulgarian cuisine that embodies freshness and simplicity. The Bulgarian pepper, known for its sweet taste and crunchy texture, serves not only as a shell but also as part of the salad mix. The filling harmoniously combines juicy tomatoes, refreshing cucumber, spicy garlic, and fragrant herbs dressed with a delicate mayonnaise sauce. This dish is perfect for a summer table: it is light, rich in vitamins and served in a natural 'plate' made from half a pepper. Salad-stuffed pepper is excellent as an appetizer or light lunch; it is convenient to take along and serve at festive tables. It combines Bulgarian culinary traditions with modern serving convenience, making it not only tasty but also aesthetically appealing.
