Nice filling soup! I was able to use 4 small green peppers from our garden to make this. I only had one can of tomato sauce so I added a small can of tomato paste and one small can of water. Also instead of canned diced tomatoes I uesed about 1 1/2 cups of fresh diced tomatoes. Great topped with the mozzarella cheese.

This is, for me, a great start. I totally love Stouf....'s stuffed peppers and am seeking to duplicate that taste. I shall add some sauteed onions and may try a bit of sugar in my next attempt (or in my leftovers). As is, it's lovely. (Ah, also, I used a red and an orange pepper--I couldn't find my green peppers.)

This is so great to make when you don't have much time but have a craving for stuffed peppers!! At first, I thought there would be too much sauce, but turned out to be just the right amount!! Might add some Tabasco or hot peppers next time to add a bit of kick. This was a wonderful weeknight dish! Thanks bmnichol! :)

Went to the Market Tag 2007 ~ Wow, talk about comfort food! I cut this in half as there's only two of us and didn't quite use as many tomatoes. I did add some red wine to it and used basmati rice. Sprinkled in some basil and oregano as I don't have 'Italian seasoning.' I also cooked it in the crock pot. Looking forward to making this again. Thanks for sharing!

I love to cook and try out new recipes. My family likes it too but at times ask my to make just "normal" food, as I forget sometimes to make my own TNT recipes.
I cook a lot with with my crock pot as it makes life a lot easier for me. I am always on the look out for new crock pot recipes.
I'm not much of a baker as I don't like to measure things.
