    We really enjoyed these stuffed peppers. Will definitely make these again. Personal preference, will probably reduce the cheese amount. Very good but alot of cheese. I also left out the butter - again, just to reduce the fat a little. Excellent flavor and very nice side dish or even main dish. Thanks for sharing!

    Really liked these a lot. Made them as posted, but felt they were missing a "certain something." On my plate, I added a few drops of Worcestershire sauce to the top and added a sprinkle more of seasoning salt and PERFECT!! The next time I make these I will add approximately 2 tsp. of Worcestershire and increase the seasoning salt to 1/2 tsp. Thanks so much for posting this yummy and unique recipe!

    What a very clever recipe,I absolutely love stuffed peppers and I love twice baked potatoes yet I would never have thought of stuffing a pepper with potatoes,, Hubby and I prepared these to go along with pork chops. We halved the recipe as it was only he and I,unfortunetly I didnt have gouda cheese so I used what we had on hand which was deli sliced american,put about 5-6 slices on top of each other and cubed it and added to the potatoes,I didnt have greek seasoning salt either so I had to skip it this time, I must tell you that this recipe is my very favorite recipe find since I joined Zaar!!! Clever,simpleto prepare,unordinary,beautiful presentation,extremely delicious,flavor combinations of the sour cream and green onions is out of this world!!! Simply scrumptious and a MUST TRY RECIPE!!! I cant wait to try it again with the gouda cheese and greek season salt next time my Mom comes to visit!!! This is a keeper and a make again and again recipe!!!! YUMMMMYYY Thanks for a great new & OUTSTANDING way to do potatoes!!! Debbie

    Wow this was easy and delicious. I halved the recipe and served it as a main dish for dh & myself - it was more than enough. I couldn't get my hands on smoked gouda so I used smoked cheddar instead still delicious!
