Since I work really hard at cooking healthy and didn't have any red peppers, I decided to turn this into a healthy mexican dish. I mixed the meat and veggies together. Instead of oregano, I added 1/2 tsp. cumin and 1 tsp. chili powder. I also added a can of chili beans and a can of whole kernal corn. I wrapped the meat/veggie mixture in corn tortillas and placed in baking dish loose side down. Then instead of tomatoes, I poured salsa over them and sprinkled low fat mexican cheeses over the top. I cooked for 50-60 minutes covered. It was delicious.

These peppers were good, but not great. I think putting about a teaspoon of olive oil on the peppers along with some salt and pepper would make the pepper itself more flavorful. Also, feel free to add your own spices to it to turn up the flavor. Very healthy dinner, but lacking in the exciting flavors I was hoping for.

My family loved this recipe. It was really easy and tasted great. I added fresh garlic, and I would add more seasonings next time. Liked the tomatoes on top too. I didn't have bulgar on hand, so I used cooked brown rice instead and worked great. I also used a mix of beef and turkey. Will make again!

This if my favorite stuffed pepper recipe. I did use a package of frozen creamed spinach instead of plain and ground turkey instead of beef. The feta is good in the mix (a little more than called for than on top. I mixed one can stewed tomatoes in the mixture and one on top.

I did not make this - I do cook GREEK food and have eaten it all my life as well as in Greece - and this is not the way Greeks make stuffed peppers! My god, what is it with you people - do you think that by throwing in some feta cheese into any ole recipe you can then call it GREEK?? Absolutely not - spinach, bulghur wheat, zucchini, .....my god are you kidding? This is the furthest thing from a Greek recipe Ellie - getting kinda tired of seeing recipes called Greek and the only Greek thing about them is the feta cheese. Please, give us all a break - this is so annoying!

The peppers were pretty good. I added 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon since that is a pretty key ingredient in Greek dishes. I would definitely add more cinnamon, oregano, and salt next time because they were very bland. It also desperately needs some kind of sauce. I would suggest covering in a sauce instead of the tomatoes. I also substituted taboule instead of bulgar, which works the same.

Fixed these last night and put them in the crock pot this morning (on low until I get home tonight. I managed to get 6 small-ish peppers into my 4 quart crock pot and there was still leftover filling! I used prepared couscous instead of the bulghur, mixed the feta into the filling mixture and doubled the oregano and salt. The crockpot usually gets the peppers nice and tender and the zucchini should keep it pretty moist. I mixed the filling in my Kitchen Aid with the blade attachment and put it all together while last night's dinner was cooking.
