I don't think it's Italian. Every response I've read to this thread
assumes rice in the stuffing. That's how we make them, but if you
don't, then that certainly affects what to have with it. We stuff ours
with hamburger, rice and a little onion. It is flavored with chili
powder and there is tomato sauce. For that, we find that corn goes well
with it.

That's sweet of you, Lou. It's not every day that a woman turns 29.
