These peppers were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would use less salt next time.

These peppers were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I would drain the ground beef more thoroughly next time.

I've made this recipe several times now and it's always a winner. The peppers are always cooked perfectly and the filling is delicious. I love that I can make it ahead of time and just pop it in the oven when I'm ready to serve.
