The addition of sour cream to the sauce at the end is a wonderful addition. This recipe is from my German grandma's recipe box. We have always wondered where she got it. No name or date on the recipe. Just a great big! and a YUM.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover rice. I also added some chopped mushrooms and zucchini to the filling for extra veggies.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth the effort. The stuffed bell peppers are incredibly delicious and the sauce is to die for. I served it with mashed potatoes and a side salad for a complete meal.

Delicious and easy to make! I used ground turkey instead of sausage and it turned out great. The peppers were stuffed to the brim with filling and the sauce was flavorful. Highly recommend!

This stuffed bell pepper recipe is a keeper! The combination of sweet bell peppers, savory sausage, and fluffy rice is simply irresistible. I added a bit of extra garlic and paprika for a touch of smokiness, and the result was divine. 5 stars!
