Best 6 Un Stuffed Bell Pepper Casserole Crock Pot Recipes

CROCKPOT STUFFED PEPPER CASSEROLE

SLOW COOKER "INSIDE OUT" STUFFED PEPPERS

Steps:

• 1. Saute the raw rice in the oil or butter until it is golden brown. Note: do not omit this step... I was in a rush to get going and skipped this step and the rice never cooked properly. You don't have to use all the butter or oil, in fact, half that amount (1/4 c) works just as well, but DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP!
• 2. Place in slow cooker with all remaining ingredients. Stir well.
• 3. Cover and cook on Low for 4 to 6 hours or on High for 2 to 3 hours.
• 4. NOTE: I cut the green pepper in long strips so it would not get lost in the recipe -- I like the "green pepper" emphasis, but you can make it however you like. I also doubled the meat to make it more like stuffed green peppers and less like Spanish rice. I think you could use 3 or even 4 green peppers, too, if you really want the stuffed pepper taste.
