very good. I used fresh garlic and added tomato sauce to the bottom of the baking dish. It made a nice sauce to put on the top of the pepper when it was done. By the way, there isn't any cheese listed in the ingredients and it was great without it! I guess I can take calories off, right? - 1/27/09

I liked this, but I added about 3/4 of a can of tomato paste and water, because it was pretty dry, then I covered with foil and cooked an additional 25 min. The peppers were so much more tender this way. - 2/28/09

I made this for dindin tonight, it was very good but had to cook 15 more minutes longer than recipe called for. I will add extra spaghetti sauce over top next time I make this, as that's what I had on hand instead of tomatoes. - 2/10/14

Bland, boring, & not very satisfying. Definitely needs a sauce & extra seasoning. Won't use this recipe again - 5/5/10
