Time 9h

Yield 4 stuffed peppers, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 large green peppers
1 lb hamburger
1 small onion, diced
1 (4 ounce) can sliced mushrooms
1 cup cooked rice
1 (28 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce, I use ragu chunky

Steps:

  • Cut the tops of the peppers, cut below the stem crown, don't toss the tops yet.
  • Cut around the stem, and chop the pepper part into small peaces.
  • Remove the seeds from the peppers.
  • In large frying pan brown hamburger, onion, mushrooms, and small chopped pepper from the stem. When browned, drain grease, add rice, and one half of the sauce.
  • Heat, and stir till it is hot again, and it is mixed well.
  • Put filling in green peppers (I pack it, but that is up to you).
  • Cover the peppers with around one table spoon, or more of sauce. Dump the rest into the crock pot. Cover, and cook on low for 8 hours.
  • Side note, the crock pot I use is 10" across, and 4" deep. The small, deep crock pots wont work.
  • You can also make it this way, and cook it in the oven.
