Making this for the second time. My guest loved it.I used chicken & pork Italian sausage instead of chicken sausage and added garlic and onions. Very good!

Made this one 2 times. The original was delicious with the 3 cheese,tomato,basil sausage. There's just the 2 of us,so I cut the recipe in half. The next week, my boyfriend requested it again but wanted me to add a sauce. I used a bottled Alfredo sauce and it was awesome. My daughter joined us for dinner and requested the recipe for an upcoming dinner for company. It was a huge hit, served with salad and garlic bread.

Very tasty. I used sweet Italian chicken sausage & I overcooked the peppers (oops!) and it was still great! :) My sons (10 & 13) devoured it, was quick, easy, filling & healthy so we will definitely be making again!

One of my family's favorite meals. I keep everything on hand for this recipe at all times. Any time my nephew comes to visit, he requests this meal. I personally use whatever color of bell pepper I happen to have on hand, but it is very appealing to look at with the 3 different colors. I use jimmy dean sausage roll for the meat and it is really good. We eat this at least twice a month

Super easy to make. I used smoked sausage and added chopped onions and garlic, too. Was a great week-night dinner. Looking forward to making it in the summer - going to try grilling the sausage and veggies.

I couldn't find any chicken,turkey or Italian sausage at our small grocery store but did use a smoked cheese sausage(probably not for the calorie counters !:)) I used cherry tomatoes which are very easy to chop. It was delicious, the smokey flavor on the sausage made it taste soooo good. Very quick and easy.

This recipe was very tasty. I did add spaghetti sauce after the peppers, chicken sausage, and pasta were mixed together to give it a bit more flavor.
