CANDI'S STUFFED PEPPER CROCK POT CASSEROLE



Candi's Stuffed Pepper Crock Pot Casserole image

My boyfriend's mom made a variation of this recipe in the oven, but it was missing something... I added some sausage and some Frank's Red Hot and that was just the ticket to add some kick to the recipe! Preparing it in the Crock Pot slowly, allowed the peppers to cook fully, and really allowed all the flavors to soak into one another. (Also allows those of us who work outside the home, to prepare the meal ahead of time and cook it all day on warm!)
