A tip: After prepping peppers turn them upside down in a baking dish of 1/2 inch water and bake at 400 degree's for 20 minutes then fill and bake until done. Perfect every time.👌

I adored my mom's stuffed peppers growing up, but memories and recipes become faded and lost over years. Out of all the possible recipe variations for this dish, I am so happy that you've given us yours. I will make them this week!
Bless you, sweet man!

In Greece we make stuffed peppers with tomatoes and we served them with baked potatoes and feta cheese and we call the dish Gemista☺️

Hey John, I'm with you; extra garlic and always double the vanilla! When i do this, I go island style. Ground pork, pineapple, ginger and teriyaki sauce! Love your vids

I make stuffed peppers often for my kiddo. Around Halloween we cut little pumpkin faces into the side of the peppers. Really excited to try this recipe!

100% agree with the parsley comment. One of my favorite dishes we made in the Banquet Kitchen at the Paris Resort in Las Vegas was a Parsley Salad with Cracked Wheat, Diced Tomato, and a simple Olive Oil and Lemon Vinaigrette. About 85% chopped, fresh parsley, and 100% light and refreshing.

One of my childhood dishes. My mom would make these often whenever we came back home from school and would taste amazing.

Loved cooking them myself years later. Brings back memories :)

My husband makes these for me as a special dish!!! It’s one of my favorite from him (replacing ground beef with ground turkey of course) ❤ Thank you. I’ve been following this channel forever. ❤❤❤

As a college student, this made such a quick, easy and healthy recipe for me to make!! Thank you!

My husband never liked stuffed peppers until I made them in my instant pot. You’re recipe sounds perfect. Pressure cook them for a few minutes, and then top with cheese, pop under the broiler. The peppers are tender, but not mushy. Yum.

Blow my mind a little with the ‘keep the top to use as a wedge’ suggestion!
Great idea!

Stuffed bell peppers and tomatoes are a great way to use up items that have become stale. You can use stale bread, cheese that has dried out a bit, and the ends of a roast that you're a bit tired of and has dried out and turn that into a filling for peppers and tomatoes and it's fantastic. I also had a friend make me quinoa stuffed bell peppers one time and it was one of the best things I ever ate and I am not a vegetarian.

Thank you for the recipe. I changed it a little bit at the end. For those who can’t eat tomato sauce, I exchanged it for cream of celery soup and some cut up roasted tomatoes, with a 1/4 cup of water.

It’s creamy and delicious.

John, I just want to say I love your videos. Your recipes are always delicious and are practical for the home cook. Btw, I have serious stove envy, love your kitchen.

I have never made stuffed peppers from precooked filling. And I have never added meltable cheese in the filling (only grated parm). But these looked amazing! I could smell all the aromas just watching you. And my mother always used green bell peppers but I prefer the red and orange. I also make a tomato sauce to pour over which really helps soften those yummy peppers. I definitely am going to make some your way and see if my family likes them more! They probably will 😂 Thank you for this, Preppy John! ❤

Love this meal. I don’t precook anything. Add onion, garlic and spices to lean ground beef. Stuff each pepper and pour tomato sauce over top. Bake 350 1 hr.

I am drooling over these stuffed peppers. I plan on making them soon. Thanks, john.

Did not realize they needed to be par cooked before they were stuffed. That really should be mentioned in the video. I followed the directions to the letter and ended up with rather raw peppers with delicious filling to serve for Christmas.

My mom uses both rice and bulgur for the filling. So good! Bulgur is such an underrated grain in my opinion.
