Having read the reviews first I did make a few minor modifications and had and excellent dish. I added some of the tomato to the meat mixture as well as some garlic powder and a bit of additional feta cheese for extra flavor. Baked as directed but left the dish covered for half of the baking time. Wonderful results. Hubby who I thought would perhaps just quietly eat without comment raved and asked if this mixture could be made into a hamburger as well. Thinking about it, he may be on to something. Form patties and include chopped roasted red peppers in the mix perhaps and grill? I will be trying this also as well for another tasty, low calorie meal.

The recipe is a good idea but boy does it need something to spice it up. It is the most bland recipe I have cooked probably ever because I followed the recipe and didn't throw in a few things I like. It's a lot of work, takes a long time to cook and, well, ick.

I'm looking for healthy recipes for my husband and I and this is a keeper. After reading other reviews, I pureed the tomatoes and added some of it to the meat mixture for moisture. I also added a few shots of hot pepper sauce for more of a kick. I served fat-free corn bread along side, which went well with the peppers.

I really wanted to try this recipe with the bulgar wheat since I've never used it before.

It was teriffic! I think I like my peppers a little softer which would require blanching them first, but all in all it was a great dish.

The filling was dry (probably due to the lean ground beef and needed more of a kick. Maybe next time I'll use a little crushed red pepper in the filling and cut down on the second half of the cooking time from 45 to 30 minutes.

VERY GOOD! I thought this had plenty of flavor. I did substitute a can of fire roasted tomato's for one can of the stewed as called for. I do think the only change I would do is put the feta cheese into the meat mixture. I just felt the meat portion was a little dry and think putting the cheese there vs on top might help. Otherwise a winner in our house!

I gave it 2 stars for the presentation but the filling was so bland. I hate to throw out the leftovers so I think I'll add salsa as someone else recommended to the mix b/c trust me they were almost in the trash this morning. The salad looked great, but the dressing was way to harsh with the lemon. Fortuanatley I didn't put the dressing on the whole salad. Ugh, what a disappointment.

I used navy beans instead of beef (since I'm veggie. They were really good, but the stewed tomatoes should go on top AND inside the filling i think. The filling was a little bit bland and more stewed tomatoes was the perfect fix. Stuffed peppers are hard to go wrong with though... delish!

I saw this on TV the other night and thought it looked yummy. I used mozzarella instead of feta and used brown rice instead of bulgur. The meat was a little dry inside my peppers, but it's probably because my grater is horrible and I had to chop up little pieces of zucchini. I think it's a great meal to have for leftovers, and I'm excited to make these again! It makes for a nice hearty, winter dish.

What a wonderful dish for those of us who should eat healthier and with less sodium. We added a squeeze of lemon to offset the lack of salt which my Doctor has forbidden me to eat because of blood pressure.
This was a great combination of flavors and textures. Thanks for adding another healthy dish to our list.
