So excited for dinner tonight. I've had stuffed peppers on the menu plan for a while, but each time it comes up, I made something else...though I'm not sure why. I haven't had stuffed peppers in a really long time....probably over 15 years!!! Again, I'm not sure why.
I love peppers. Add some rice, beef, corn, and cheese and wow!!! Now if Nicholas will eat them I'll be impressed and surprised. He loves peppers; he loves beef; he loves cheese; corn is ok by him. Yet when it is combined like this I'm not so sure he'll eat it, but I guess we will find out.
These couldn't be easier to make. We went to PF Chang's for dinner last night so I had them wrap up some brown rice for me which saved a bit of time. Add browned ground beef, frozen corn, and some seasonings such as oregano or italian seasoning (just a bit). Stuff the peppers that have been cleaned out with the mixture. Put in the crock pot for a few hours. Top with some cheese just before serving.
Someone had recommended that you could make these in advance when peppers are on sale and freeze them stuffed. Then just take them out and put them in the crockpot to cook. I just might have to try that when I find peppers on sale or maybe this summer when I'm growing my own peppers. I'm hoping to do a little better this summer with growing peppers.
Well, I can't wait for dinner for tonight....here's hoping Nicholas eats them!!!
