Absolutely wonderful stuffed peppers. I will never make them any other way again. I used an Italian Blend shredded cheese to top them and they were great. One word of caution, and this was entirely MY fault. Follow step 4 and don't have your mixture too thick. I didn't thin the mixture like I should have and the filling was a little denser than they should have been. BUT!, the peppers were still delicious. Thank you Richard for sharing such a great recipe.

Ummm, these stuffed peppers sure were good, Richard. I loved that they are meatless. I followed your directions and would not change anything about this recipe. Made a wonderful family meal. The marinara and cheese topping were a great idea. Thanks for the recipe.

Very good recipe. To my fault, I did not have any flavored breadcrumbs, so tried try flavor my own with some Italian spice mix and salt. I even tasted it that it was ok, but obviously was not enough, because the filling was one big tasteless lump. I should have added more water to it, as well. But I love the idea and the whole consept is so nice, that I will try to correct my mistakes, next time.
