A complete disaster. I followed the recipe EXACTLY as it appears and the following happened: 1.) the rice was not done after the 30 minute baking time - in fact, I covered it back up and baked for another 30 minutes - the rice NEVER got done; 2.) the "mixture", even after cooking for 60 minutes, was more like a soup. I recommend you steer clear of this recipe unless you like sausage soup with half-done rice. -
I used quick cooking rice and the rice was cooked, also I added cheese to the mixture an ok meal not to my tastes but my DW loved it. -
I think there is an error maybe if all the ingredients were mixed apart from the tomato paste, and used to stuff the peppers and then the tomato paste poured over the top of the peppers and then cooked for maybe a little longer than stated this recipe should turn out fine.

I made this account back in 2001, when the site was called "Recipezaar". A lot has changed in my life since then. My kids are all grown and I try to eat a low-carb lifestyle now. Some of my older recipes were handed down from my grandmother. I hope you all enjoy them as much as I have.
Current recipes that I post will mostly be low carb or keto.
