For some extra flavor, I like to add bouillon to the dish while the peppers bake. It also steams them a little. If I make these with ground chicken or turkey, I use chicken bouillon; if I make them with ground beef, I use beef bouillon. -Hope Huggins, Santa Cruz, California

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my peppers turned out really dry. I think I'll add more sauce next time.

I added some chopped mushrooms and zucchini to the filling. It made the peppers even more flavorful and nutritious.

These peppers were a little too mushy for my taste. I think I'll cook them for a shorter amount of time next time.
