Great recipe! 1st the pros: 1-Bulgur in stuffing is a great idea. 2-Just 2 tbsp of olive oil & st is pure veggie goodness! 3-Melissa's idea of pulsing veggies in food processor was gr8. 4-Plated dish was a feast for the eyes too..I love recipes that look great plated....I like to share pics with my bf to share my love of cooking with him!. Cons: 1-salt/pepper alone wasn't flavorful enuf, so as I went along, I added a dash of spices till I was satisfied with taste - cumin/coriander powder, Indian garam masala, red chilli powder. Dash of salt & lime juice to bulgur. Added grated carrots & chopped jalapeno for kick. Otherwise followed rest of recipe & prep. Delish & satisfying. Couldn't hv predicted I'd love eating the zucchini boat. Plus, delish bulgur filling is a standalone dish! Definitely a do over. I see variety of possibilities by combining dfferent spices, veggies or substituting bulgur with other grains. 1st recipe of Melissa's I tried & will be coming back for more!

I made a few substitutions, using what I had in my refrigerator. I used leftover couscous made with beef stock, browned 1/3 lb. sausage in another pan, sprinkled small amount of red pepper flakes; put everything together at the last. Piled it in 2 yellow summer squash and 1 red bell pepper. Again, topped squash and red pepper with Mexican shredded cheese that I had on hand. My husband's comment, "This may be the best thing you have ever made!" And I am a good cook! I love your show Melissa! You cook the way I've always cooked, frugally. I'd love a cookbook with your dinner suggestions and recipes.

Just saw the video (sans Tarragon and thought this would be a great summer dinner idea when all the veggies are so fresh! I love that she used multiple items for a beautiful presentation.

I've been wanting to make this for forever and I finally got around to making it. I wish I would've made it earlier! My husband is not a vegetable (especially bell peppers kind of guys but he loved this (and I gave him the big bell pepper. I took someone's advice on adding the mozzarella to the stuffing and I accidently added the 1/3 of the two tomatoes I used to the stuffing as well. I didn't use the food processor so everything was pretty roughly chopped but it was excellent. I will definitely make this again and again.

I was daunted by the fact that Melissa had used a food proc., but saw that it wasn't needed on the written recipe, so I just chopped all the veggies. I feel that tarragon is a strong flavor for me, so I used only 1 tsp., and would consider switching it to parsley in the future. I would like to try this with a lean ground turkey mixed in for a complete meal. I thought all the filling inside could have benefited with a little cheese, like mozzarella, mixed inside. Be careful of the tomatoes; make sure to scrape the inside of the sides really well, as even the shell will release a lot of liquid and can make the final product a little watery.

I accidently picked up a tablouli salad kit which included bulgar wheat. Bulgar wheat is very difficult to find in my area. The recipe turned out fantastic. I was thrilled with results of my error. It is a very easy recipe to make and delicious!

I made this for my family last night. The bulgur was hard to find in my area but I did finally find it. It was an interesting new dish. I think next time I will try parsley (the tarragon was a new flavor for us and to make it a complete meal I may add some Italian sausage. Overall good and worth making again.

This was a wonderful recipe. Never tried bulgur before but will definitely be using again. Loved the nutty flavor. Only thing I changed was substitute Italian parsley for tarragon because I am not a fan. My husband loved this recipe as well. Love to find new ways for veggies and this was a starch and vegetable all in one. Served with grilled pork tenderloin. It was a perfect side dish. Thanks Melissa. Your recipes are always winners.
