I made these on Tuesday for dinner and I used a little smaller peppers and a little more beef, but they were excellent. My very picky father-in-law thought that they were absolutely delicious!!! I will have again.

I read others' comments and thus, added extra seasonings and let it cook longer and was thrilled with the results! My husband and I both loved it! I would make this again, without hesitation!

The family liked this one a lot. I thought it could use a bit more seasoning. I'll make these again.
