What are Slow Cooker Lasagna Stuffed Peppers?

What is the Easiest Way to Stuff Bell Peppers?

The easiest way to stuff bell peppers is by using ground beef and rice.

The ingredients for this recipe include: 1 pound of ground beef, 1 cup of uncooked rice, 2 cups of water, salt and pepper to taste, 4 large bell peppers.

The first step is to cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat until it’s no longer pink. Add in the uncooked rice and let it brown for about 5 minutes. Then add in the water and simmer until all the liquid has been absorbed into the rice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

In a separate skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil before adding each bell pepper cut side down. Cook them until they start to get soft (about 10 minutes). Then turn them over and cook them on other side for an additional 10 minutes or until they are soft enough so that you can easily cut through them with a knife.
