We love stuffed bell peppers here at our house!  In fact, my hubby just asked for them again last week!  Since bell peppers are so plentiful in the summer, that’s when I usually fix them most often.  If you’re like me though, I’m not too thrilled about turning my oven on when the temperature outside is in the 90’s and the central air unit is already running most of the day.  That’s why this recipe is finished in the slow cooker.  The finished product is much the same as if you had used your oven, but only in the slow cooker!!!  Bonus!!! Right?

But I digress…this recipe is also as delicious as it is simple to put together.  Give it a try!  I hope you enjoy it as much as my family does! 🙂
