This is a great recipe for anyone who loves bell peppers! My dad always made this for me when I was growing up... now I make it for my own family and get raves every time! Serve over pasta and with bruschetta for a full meal! Enjoy!

This was great. I followed the recipe exactly and am glad I did. My husband said it tasted like something he had in a restaurant only better. Even my kids who do not eat peppers and onions if they know they are there ate them. My 10 year old commented that they did not taste like peppers. We had it over pasta with a salad. I can t wait to try it again this summer with peppers and onions fresh from our garden!!! Read More

I don't understand the rave about this recipe. I added two canse of diced tomatoes and still needed more. It lacked flavor. It was full of garlic with nothing else to help it. Read More

I used this as a sandwich filling and found it great. Just prepare as stated then pile it on a loaf of french bread cut in half lengthwise pile on the cheese and slip under the broiler for a few minutes. Guys love it for great half-time lunch! Read More

I made this for my family about a week ago and they are still talking about it!!! I followed the recipe exactly and it was just perfect. One thing I did do was use more sausage and did half mild and half hot- amazing!!!!! Read More

AMYM20 this is a fabulous recipe. When I served this dish for dinner it was over penne. I did not drain the tomatoes and I added marsala wine to bring out the flavor of the sausage and the sweetness of the peppers. I also expanded on the recipe adding a zucchini mushrooms and a summer squash. The next day I added the mozzarella chese and served on toasted garlic subs. Absolutely delicious both times! Daddy sure taught you well and thanks for the post. Read More

Note, There is no mention of adding pasta to this recipe. We who cook all the time know how much and when to do so, but young new cooks need to know this stuff. Read More
