This was amazing! I loved how the flavors came together. Will definitely make again! βββββ
Yum! This is a dish I can serve at my next family gathering. Thanks!
This sounds super healthy! Can’t wait to try it for my family too. Thanks for sharing!
Looks good but my kids are picky eaters. I doubt they’ll eat such weird stuff. Anyone have a suggestion?
WAT? You gotta preheat an oven? Can’t just microwave the peppers? π€β
Yeah, preheating is super important! Microwaving won’t give you that nice roasted flavor. Trust me, it’s worth it! π₯
I donβt get why people like veggies so much. But my wife loved this. So I guess it’s good?
Yum yum! Feels like I’m eating in a fancy restaurant! So good and colorful! βββββ
Looks great, but I donβt have thyme. Will it still work?
This recipe is easy to follow. I added some ground beef for extra protein!
Looks healthy but I donβt like vegetables much, still gave it a try. Itβs not bad for veggie food, I guess. βββ
Simple and healthy, my kids loved it! π
Not my fav. The eggplant was too mushy for me.
I actually loved the eggplant! Maybe try less cooking time next time? It can get mushy if overcooked.
Mushy eggplant? I thought it’s supposed to be like that. Didn’t like it at all!
Ratatouill is French but this seems more Italian???
Ratatouille is definitely French. I see your point, but this recipe’s twist makes it unique! Who says we can’t mix cuisines?
I donβt get it, if you say itβs Ratatouille, why is it stuffed? Sounds more like Italian cooking to me.
It looks nice but I don’t like eggplant. Can I skip it?
I made this for my family and they all loved it! Super easy to follow the steps. πππππ
So glad your family enjoyed it! It’s a big hit at my house too! π
Who even likes wild rice? I used white rice and it turned out better! Just saying. ββ
Wild rice is actually super healthy, but whatever works for ya! π₯΄π
These stuffed peppers are AMAZING! I added some cheese on top π
Not what I expected, didn’t like the texture of the eggplant in the filling. Might skip that next time. βββ
I tried this recipe but I messed up with the rice. Is it supposed to be wild rice or just normal rice?
I thought normal rice was better. Wild rice is kinda weird… but whatever, at least you tried it!
It’s definitely supposed to be wild rice! It adds a nice texture and flavor. Don’t worry, we all make mistakes sometimes! π
