  1. This as a great alternative to the more Italian style stuffed peppers. I used Chorizo for the sausage and put a little pepper jack cheese on top. Very delicious! This also made so much, I was able to make two pans and save one back for another day.
     
  2. I was looking for a spicier not sweet Stuffed Bell Pepper and Theresa yours fit the bill. I halfed a lot of the ingredients the ground sausage I used Homemade Smoked Pork Sausage and Ground Chuck and added 1 tsp La. Hot Sauce and Worcestshire; in rice added 2 tsp Salt-Free Chicken Bouillion Powder. Have put in my cookbooks and will email friends and family on the great flavor! Thanks for posting! Justmez2
     
  3. This was a nice stuffed pepper recipe, but I prefer the Cook's Illustrated one posted by Heather Lazar to this one. We added grated Mexican cheese in the last 5 minutes of cooking, which I thought added even more flavor.
     
  4. My husband loved these. I added a little bit more salt and pepper at the end and only used hot sausage for the meat. The only complaint I had was it being to hot for me but that could be my fault for adding to much cajun seasoning.
     
  5. Excellent. Ive found most of the stuffed pepper recipes ive tried to be rather boring, taste wise. This one is definetly not! My family loved this recipe! DH says these are even better than his Mom's! =)
