Stuffed peppers image

This is my version of an old classic. My late hubs couldn't eat peppers and I hadn't made them in years. Now I am making these a lot they are a tried and true at our house. Don't use too lean a hamburg here, you want the fat for flavor.

Time 6h15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 to 4 large green bell peppers
1 1/2 lb ground beef
1/3 c scant 1/3 cup minus a tablespoon white rice
1/2 c onion, finely chopped
1/2 tsp each salt and pepper, or to taste
14 1/2 oz can tomato sauce, we like hunt's

Steps:

  • 1. If your peppers are tippy, shave some off the bottom to get them to stand level. Cut off the top, I save the tops for other uses, usually put in a salad for the same meal.
  • 2. Mix up everything except the tomato sauce.
  • 3. Stuff the peppers with the hamburg mixture.
  • 4. Put the stuffed peppers in your slow cooker, and pour the tomato sauce over them.
  • 5. Cover and cookon low for 6 to 8 hours. My slow cooker always cooks fast, so for me it's 6 hrs.
