This was really good and easy! Had some orzo that needed to be used up and this was the perfect recipe for it. I agree, this can actually fill 6 peppers, not just 4, but we'll just heat up and eat the rest separately.
Absolutely delicious and easy to make. I had enough filling or six large peppers, so even better on the budget! I substituted minute rice for the orzo pasta and used a whole jar of pasta sauce, but the filling was still thick, hearty and delicious. I also parboiled my peppers rather than use the microwave and also baked the peppers in the oven since I had time. This was a wonderful meal on a chilly spring night and I loved how pretty it appeared as well since I used green, orange, red and yellow peppers.
This stuffed pepper recipe is really delicious. I never made it with pasta sauce before and it is really different but very, very good.
I made this last evening. I didn't have orzo, so I used rice & I seasoned my own canned tomatoes, I baked them 20 min. Otherwise I followed the recipe. YUMMY !!!
I have peppers, so far green and orange, in my garden. Will be fun to try this recipe. Need to use the peppers besides freezing them for the future.
I don't care for stuffed peppers but I made this for my husband and he loved it. I'm giving it 5 stars because he liked it so much that he asked me how to make it. He now makes it for himself, since we work opposite shifts.

I used ground turkey and red bell peppers because they were on sale. It was wonderful.
I made this for dinner last night. It was great! I added the salt and pepper as suggested and added some leftover veggies I had instead of the ones suggested...much easier than chopping the others. I blanched the peppers before stuffing them and then baked them in the oven vs the microwave. I also used colby jack cheese since I didn't have the parma. cheese. Nice change from the rice stuffed peppers I used before. I used 4 very large peppers, so I had just enough filling. The only change I'd make would to be to add a bit more seasoning. Not sure what, but it is open for experimenting.
