These were wonderful. A bit of prep work, but well worth it. I had 1.25 lbs of ground beef and kept the rest of the ingredients the same. It filled 4 bell peppers. The sauce was just the right amount, too.

Three of us sat down for the dinner, and all found the stuffed pepper to be somewhat dry and lacking substantially in flavor. Don't know what we can do to fix it . . . perhaps slicing the peppers in half (like my nana used to do) and then stuffing the meat in each side; maybe even blending in a can of that tomato sauce directly into the meat. We will try another stuffed pepper recipe.

Stuffed peppers have been one of my favorite dishes for years and this recipe did not disappoint. I made them for my boyfriend and I and we both enjoyed them. I did make a few changes to cater more to my tastes. I fried my chopped onion in butter and added a tsp of chopped garlic to that. I also added a dash of Emeril's essence for some flavor. I also made more sauce and added some to the meat mixture inside the pepper so there was cooked in tomato flavor throughout. I think the changes I made were pretty minor and the recipe is probably still great as is. Thanks for the wonderful recipe!

YUM! So flavorful! I love having a recipe that you don't have to cook the ground beef first. Your review was so helpful, Jillian. I used frozen bell peppers from last summer's garden. As the peppers were soft when they defrosted, I skipped cooking them in boiling water. I tried not to stray from the recipe, but when I went to do the dishes, I found the egg still sitting there lightly beaten. It didn't seem to be a problem. The cooking time was right on and our dinner was FABULOUS! Thank you for sharing your family recipe, Jillian I'm sure you make your family proud!

This dish reminded me of the bell peppers my mother used to make for us, only less time. For some reason my mom made this dish sound like it was so time consuming. Well, not with this recipe! My husband loved it and so did i. no changes were made to the recipe.

Super great recipe! I've made these peppers a few times and we all love them. I use red and green peppers for a variety and with 1 1/2 lbs beef it easily fills 5-6 peppers. I really like the addition of the vinegar in the tomato sauce. Great with mashed potatoes!
