Sausage and Rice Stuffed Peppers

I would mix cheese into the filling next time.

We like it

Changes I made - Skipped the microwave step. Instead, I boiled water and dipped the peppers into it to blanch them. I added many more seasonings. Doubled the meat. Tripled the garlic. Used all the rice we had left in rice cooker, so I couldn't say how much of that. Probably came out to a bit more than the recipe said. And due to personal preferences, only put cheese on half. Overall, It was pretty good. I would make it again. Even with sharp knives, I'm very slow at chopping. It was a lengthy prep work process for me. In the end, I'd say it was worth it.

This was good! I had to season it a lot more than I was expecting though, so maybe keep that in mind. I also stuffed a cube of mozzarella cheese in 3 of them and that was very good! I think next time I’ll season the peppers while steaming them as they were bland. Good though and a great base recipe for customization.

Add cheese in the mix and on top

It was one of my favorite ones! I used ground turkey instead and I put some cheese on the stuffing everyone loved them. One is enough to get anyone full

Easy Sunday meal. Great flavor. Put poached eggs on them for breakfast 😋

Made w/ sweet mini bell peppers (1lb), had extra filling leftover. Skipped pre cooking the peppers to keep them from getting over cooked. Added green Chiles for a little extra spice.

Pretty simple to make and it’s yummy and filling! I served it with chips and guacamole.

Microwave peppers for 10 minutes and immediately remove plastic wrap and discard liquid. Great recipe and adaptable! I may add mushrooms and parmesan next time to the filling.

Makes a lot of the "stuffing". Directions where not simple to follow had to figure it out as I went. Still turned out yummy though.

Took a long time to prepare. Needs more meat.

I added more cheeses melted within the meat as well, cause… cheese. I put Gouda/Parmesan on top as they are my faves and white rice instead of brown. Just personal preference too. Hubby loved it.

Used hot sausage, which added a nice flavor. Had leftover filling. Instructions were difficult to view on the site, so copying them here: 1) Cut the tops off the peppers. Remove and discard the stems, then finely chop the tops; set aside. Scoop out the seeds and as much of the membranes as you can. Place the peppers in a microwave safe bowl, add ½ cup water and cover with plastic wrap. Microwave until just beginning to soften, about 12 minutes, then uncover and set aside. 2) Preheat the oven to 450˚. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until cooked through, about 6 minutes. Remove to a plate. 3) Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the pan. Add the tomatoes, red onions, garlic, Italian seasoning and the chopped pepper tops and cook, stirring, until tender and lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes. 4) Season the mixture with salt and pepper and stir in the sausage and rice. Taste and adjust the seasoning. 5) Place the peppers upright in a baking dish just large enough to hold them. Fill with the rice mixture and bake for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with the cheese and continue baking until the cheese is browned in spots, 10 to 12 more minutes.

Good! I did not use sausage though because I had steak at home, but ended up making it vegetarian. Still very tasty.

There is enough filling we could have done double the peppers

Used hot Italian sausage and fresh mozzarella

That was delicious and all in the house thought it was great. Will make again and again.

It took me longer than an hour, more like 2 hours, but I am a beginner. I also did not see that it said COOKED brown rice, and when I made this, the rice was raw and crunchy. This would have been delicious but I fucked it up. I did not know that rice is raw. I just wasted 2 1/2 hours of my life and i'm sill starving ;(

I changed a lot of things 1. I used taco season turkey sausage because there was nothing in the fridge 2. I never microwave the bell peppers, I don’t have a microwave for that 3.I did not use Italian seasoning because the meat is already seasoned 4.I did not use mozzarella, I used cheddar cheese 5. I threw the top of the pepper but I don’t see the point in using it 6. You can use water in your tomato’s if you really need it to be softened, don’t put too much water 7.pack on the salt and pepper 8. I had little bit of rice which was not a problem at all because my grandma keep eating rice nonstop so I was very lucky to have one piece left.

I had to change most of the recipe to make it work not too flavorful either

Very simple, delicious and easy to make

Would microwave peppers for 10 mins. Final cook of 7-8 mins.

Paired it with roasted asparagus topped with tomato and goat cheese it was so filling.

This was a great dish to make and kid friendly (my kids are 10&13). My kids are very good in the kitchen since we always cook together. Doesn't take long to make not a whole hr of cook. Very fresh and has healthy attributes to it as well... It's REALLY GOOD BIG HIT HERE. This is the second time making. Had to cut the rice down some and used white rice instead

Next time, I will use spicy sausage instead.

Only 1 cup rice and 1 1/2 onion. Use a big pot

Really yummy! cheap and easy meal, definitely will be having again. Would say to put cheese in the middle as well as the top when layering.

makes a lot of extra filling so I served it on the side with a side salad as well. tasted amazing!!!

Too sweet

very good, I only microwaved my peppers for 6 minutes, they were perfect

IT took like 1 hour but it is tasty but I flowed the instructions but ended up with more than 5 times the filling that I could fit in the bel peppers

I would make this again.. I cut the peppers in half because that's how my family eats them better, and I also skipped the microwave because my daughter prefers crunchy

Cooking the Peppers in the microwave ahead of time made them soggy. We would recommend not cooking them before stuffing them.
