I really like stuffed peppers, but I wanted a somewhat updated version of them that would appeal to all ages. Hence this recipe was born. I like making it with chopped turkey so it’s somewhat leaner and healthier. It smells really, really good and homey as it’s cooking. Tastes so, too!
1 medium–large onion
2 cubes Gefen Frozen Garlic
1 large red pepper, chopped
1 medium yellow pepper, chopped
1/2 an orange pepper or 2 mini peppers, diced
1 pound (450 grams) ground meat or turkey (or veal)
1 (14-ounce/400-gram) can crushed tomatoes
1 (15-ounce/425-gram) can Gefen Tomato Sauce
1 cup basmati rice
1 cube beef bouillon, dissolved in 1 and 1/2 cups boiling water
1 teaspoon Glicks Soy Sauce
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1 teaspoon light brown sugar, or to taste
salt and pepper to taste
pinch cayenne pepper
Turn slow cooker to high. Spray bottom and sides with cooking spray. Place all veggies in slow cooker and cook for approximately half an hour, stirring often. They should start to soften and smell fragrant.
Add meat and continue cooking for 20 minutes, mixing until it changes colors, breaking it up so it cooks evenly. (This can be done the night before. Refrigerate until continuing to cook.) Add the rest of the ingredients and mix all together well.
Cover and cook on high for two and a half hours, or on low for approximately five. Serve over rice.

Made this and it was very good, Used a frying pan to help speed up the process. Here are the sped up instructions that I used:
1. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large frying pan. Place all veggies in pan and sauté until they start to soften and smell fragrant.
2. Add meat and continue cooking for 5 min, mixing until it changes colors, breaking it up so it cooks evenly. (This can be done the night before. Refrigerate until continuing to cook.)
3. Spray croc pot with olive oil and pout in mixture. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix all together well.
4. Cover and cook on high for two and a half hours, or on low for approximately five. Serve over rice.

Rice Do u put the rice from the ingredients in the crockpot? Or is it the rice you serve it with after the dish is cooked
Stuffed peppers has rice, so this goes into the recipe. Be sure to make rice to serve separately. Enjoy.
