Slow Cooker Stuffed Bell Peppers

Ingredients:

  • 6-8 large bell peppers
  • 2 lbs. ground beef
  • 1 large onion
  • 1 cup Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • Mozzarella cheese, shredded
  1. Light brown ground beef ; drain.
  2. Combine all ingredients and mix well.
  3. Gently pack into peppers which have been capped and seeded.
  4. Spray slow cooker with a nonstick spray and place peppers in slow cooker.
  5. Cover and cook on low 9 to 11 hours or high 5 to 6 hours.
  6. The last hour add Mozzarella cheese to the peppers.

Note:  This recipe calls for cooked rice but I chose to use Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice because it only takes 90 seconds in the microwave and Ta-Da….Cooked rice!  I also used McCormick’s onion flakes instead of an onion.  I didn’t measure the onion flakes, I just put as much as I thought was needed.  I also cooked our peppers on low for about 9 hours and they were perfect.  This was served with Twice Baked Potatoes and garlic bread.  Yummy!
