When I was younger, I dreaded the evenings when my question, “What’s for dinner, mom?” was followed by “stuffed peppers!” I always scraped out the filling, discarded the slimy pepper and then picked out the giant chunks of onion from the meat filling all while wrinkling my nose as much as I could.
Well, these aren’t my momma’s stuffed peppers. (Love you, Mom. <3) My taste in food has matured by leaps and bounds in the last twenty years, but there are also no giant inedible chunks and no carb-laden saltine crackers or conventional rice as filler.
These peppers are moist, full of flavor and sooooo easy to make. Just brown a little ground beef, stuff the filling in the peppers, throw them – okay, set them carefully – in the slow cooker, set it on low and go about your busy day!

Instructions
