I have tried this recipe and made it more like a stew. I put in enough uncooked rice to soak up the liquid. It smelled and tasted just like stuffed peppers. I am not a fan of the large pepper so I liked this.

I just made the best ever stuffed peppers last week- I might have to make them again b/c they were so good.
I used a little over a lb of turkey burger, cooked it up w/ chopped onion. Then I cooked 1c each of quinoa and brown rice. Once cooked, I mixed these in w/ the meat, and added a large can of diced tomatoes, added salt and pepper to taste. I stuffed 6 peppers w/ this mixture, put them in my large enamal cast iron pot, and then poured a large jar veggie juice all over them.
Re: Please share your 'stuffed peppers' recipe with me.
I cut this out of the newspaper a few months back & I haven't tried it yet but sounds easy & delish! (I scanned it so it's huge! sorry!)

wait that didn't work out too well..I will try again!
Stuffed peppers,
in the slow-cooker
In this recipe, the slow-cooker really allows the flavors in the filling to meld. Assemble the
peppers the night before and refrigerate; place them in the slow-cooker on the way out the door
the next morning. Dinner's ready when you are.
