Doubled the garlic and onions; and before bake topped with organic tomatoes, more mozarella, Medit sea salt, and freshly ground pepper. Loved this great tofu bell pepper recipe; thank you, Cynna !

Delicious! I added a few ingredients and modified how I put them together such as I salted the inside of the pepper before adding the mixture; and I crumbled the tofu into the vegetables instead of putting it in the food processor. I added to olive oil to the mixture and also put some cracked crumbs on top before baking.
