    I can't believe it! My husband loved it. He is usually not big on stuffed peppers, but this casserole really did the trick! - 10/31/18

    Substituted the ground beef with ground turkey. Still came out very good. Will be using this again. - 5/15/17

    Just made this recipe. It smells and looks delicious. Couple missing things on the recipe. How much garlic? And oven temperature setting? I went with a tablespoon minced garlic and set oven at 350. Taste tested and it is scrumptious! Love this recipe! - 1/17/17
