INSIDE-OUT STUFFED PEPPERS
Our daughters Kimberly and Kristina don't like the way the meat and rice mixture is usually stuffed inside big green peppers. So Kristina added a chopped pepper to the other ingredients in a casserole.-Darlene Brenden, Salem, Oregon

CANDI'S STUFFED PEPPER CROCK POT CASSEROLE
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!)
