Great flavor! I didn’t have tomato soup so I substituted tomato sauce. I added cilantro. Topped with cheddar at the end and let it melt in the oven for a few minutes.
This was delicious! I have used 3 – 4 peppers I substituted tomato sauce for the tomato soup. I used a 28 oz. can of tomato sauce and mixed some in with the meat mixture and poured the rest on top. I used 1 “Boil in a Bag’ white rice. I plan on making these again.
Delicious! This pepper has a great flavor with the added feta cheese. I made two different types of peppers for dinner. This recipe and ‘Yummy Stuffed Peppers’ from AR. My DH really liked this one. I cut the recipe back to one pepper and cut it in half rather than stuffing it. Since we do not eat olives, I served it with extra feta cheese. Also served ‘Feta Mashed Potatoes’ from AR and sliced cucumbers. A good, different recipe for peppers with a twist. I would make it again.
