I made this earlier this week because I wanted to try something different than the usual steak, pork chop, or chicken dish served with a vegetable, etc. It worked out pretty well but to give them more flavor i'd recommend adding italian seasoning to the tomato sauce and ground beef mixture. It needs a bit of spice! Also for some variety I added yellow and red peppers. I have pictured the yellow pepper but the green was my favorite!
