Adapted from a recipe in the Cooking Light Slow Cooker Cookbook. This one uses pitted dates and dried apricots in place of the more traditional raisins, but raisins could be substituted for either or both of these if you prefer. If more heat is desired, substitute hotter peppers for part of the bell peppers, increase the amount of cayenne or add dried red pepper flakes or hot pepper sauce. It can also be made with a combination of ground beef and ground pork, or even made with ground turkey. I use no-salt-added tomatoes and tomato sauce. Very versatile: serve it over hot rice, wrap it in flour tortillas, use it to stuff peppers, zucchini or other vegetables or serve it as a dip with tortilla chips.
