    This recipe is good, and even better with some tweaks. The first time I made it I followed the instructions and thought it was delicious, but I had to cook for longer than the time stated because the peppers were still pretty crunchy. I probably cooked 1 hour with the foil on and another 20 with it off. The second time, I used an equal amount of uncooked rice instead of bulghur, I mixed in some mild Italian sausage with the ground beef, and I mixed some feta in with the meat in addition to adding feta on top. It was awesome like this! I also put the pepper halves in the oven to pre-bake while I prepped all the filling, and this reduced the cooking time to roughly what's stated in the recipe. Next time, I plan to use ground lamb instead of beef and maybe make some tzatziki sauce to go with!

    This looks delish & plan to make it tomorrow. Thinking I may brown meat w/garlic & some seasoning first, then mix with the other ingredients. And i plan to use whole wheat cous-cous, which my family loves. Will report back on how it turned out!

    I made these last night. I don't know why but mine were still raw on the inside after cooking for the time stated. I had to cook them for an extra 20 minutes for the meat to be cooked. They were ok but I am sure I can tweak the recipe and make it really good. I will add some grated carrot, add the cheese to the inside, add some garlic and that should make them fabulous! I do absolutely LOVE Ellie and I really wish you would have some NEW shows. I have seen every single episode and want more!

    I used ground turkey as well. Great way to get my hubby to eat his veggies (me too. I thought it was tasty, nutritious, and easy to make. Will be making this on a regular basis. Love Ellie's healthy and tasty recipes.

    I used ground turkey instead of beef and 1/2 cup cooked quinoa instead of the bulghur. I also cooked the ground meat prior to stuffing the peppers to save on cooking time. Next time I will mix the cheese into the stuffing as a some of it fell off the top of the peppers. I had no problems with dryness.

    I used ground turkey bc it's what I had defrosted. AND I added garlic. I thought they were dry and flavorless. That being said I am more likely to eat something like this since I eat more cleanly than my son or husband and I wasn't impressed. They would prefer I stick to the more traditional version- ground turkey, brown rice, and cheddar.

    Ground beef wouldnt have been as dry but would still have been lackluster.

    I LIKE THE ADDED ZUCCHINI EVERYTHING ELSE IS ABOUT THE SAME. THE ONLY THING I AM NOT SURE OF IS BULGHUR?

    LOOKS GREAT AND I AM GOING TO USE IT ON SATURDAY....

    Needs more flavor. Use garlic or more pepper.

    great recipe and can be made vegetarian. I used Boca meatless crumbles and cut the cooking time in half by cooking it at 425 for 15 minutes covered and 15 minutes uncovered.YUM
