This was the perfect recipe for a cold winter night. The peppers were so tender and the filling was so flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The instructions were easy to follow, but the end result was a bit dry. I would recommend adding more sauce or broth to the dish.

Overall, this recipe was good. The peppers were a bit undercooked for my liking, but the filling was flavorful. I would make it again, but I would cook the peppers for a few minutes longer.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more spices to the filling, such as garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.

Delicious! This is a great recipe for a quick and easy weeknight meal. I used pre-cooked sausage to save time, and it still turned out great.

I made this dish last night and it was delicious! I made a few changes, though. I used brown rice instead of orzo, and I added some chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the filling. It was a great success!
