This recipe was so good we were heartbroken when it was finished! I used ground turkey and the combination of turkey and stuffing was like a modified Thanksgiving dinner. The stuffing on top of the pepper got cooked more so it came out crunchy and topped with the ooey-gooey melt in your mouth mozzarella it was absolutely to DIE for! Making the stove top stuffing with chicken broth as opposed to water like the box calls for was definitely a bonus for my taste buds. However I will tell you that since I decided to use my home made chicken broth which was salted to begin with, I decided to opt out of the garlic powder because I felt the seasoning might be too powerful. Let me know if you’ve tried this recipe and tell me what you’d think, I’d love to hear it!
