I made these over Labor Day Weekend for a gathering of family and friends at our house. They were delicious! Everyone wants the recipe. These are going to become a regular in my recipe collection. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I would agree with cutting the salt down to 1 1/2 or just 1 tea spoon. The cut the meat down to 1 pound total and it made 11 peppers in total.

I should first start by saying it is extremely disappointing to choose a highly rated recipe from this site and run into an issue while cooking only to go back and find most reviewers found the very same problem with the recipe and.... went ahead rated it well anyway. I don't always have time to read all the reviews. I am giving this one star because I found, like most, that you only need half the filling that this recipe calls for. And you do not need to go through the tough work of parboiling the peppers. Just stuff them raw. Too many bread crumbs in the filling. Otherwise, sauce is great.

This was delicious! My husband raved about it so much, I had to make it again for his friends too! There was plenty of stuffing for 2 or 3 times the amout of peppers called for. So I made more of the sauce and made another batch of peppers!

Very tasty. I only used 1/2 t salt (for the sauce) and 1/2 c bread crumbs and 2/3 c of the sauce for the sausage. Definitely will make this again - thank you!

Very good and flavorful. I followed previous advice and halved the amount of meat mixture, but kept the sauce the same. I had extra meat, so I crumbled it and spread it throughout the pan. Also, no need to add salt. Very good, but a lot of work!

Delicious. I even "healthed" this up and it was still great. I used 99% fat free ground turkey instead of sausage. Much less spicy, but you can leave more of the membrane in the sausage if you want it hot. The only thing I would change is add more sauce (I made it with noodles for my kids). Thanks!

While I wouldn't say we disliked these, I would say they were just average. With all the great reviews I expected more from this recipe. All my ingredients were fresh. The peppers from my garden, along with the fresh basil and home canned tomatoes. I agree with other reviewers, the amount of stuffing is way too much although I just scattered the leftovers around the peppers before pouring the sauce over them all. While I was mixing the bread crumbs with the sausage, I thougth 1 1/2 cups of bread crumbs would be way too much never the less I followed the recipe instead of my instincts. 1/2 to 3/4 cup bread crumbs would have been plenty. I also was considering cooking the sausage before baking the whole dish to avoid pooling of grease, however again I followed the recipe and found no grease pooling on top. I assumed it was due to the excess bread crumbs soaking it up. All in all, I would not make this again.
