Ingredients

For the Tex-Mex Stuffed Peppers

  • 6 bell peppers, any color, tops cut, stemmed and seeded
  • 1 pound ground beef, uncooked
  • 1.5 cups white rice, cooked
  • 1 cup corn kernels, frozen
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided 
  • 1- 15 ounce can black beans, drained
  • 1- 10-ounce can red enchilada sauce
  • 1- 14.5 ounce can diced tomatoes, drained
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon chili powder 
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin 
  • salt and pepper, to taste

For the Cilantro Sour Cream

  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup cilantro leaves, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

For the Peppers

  1. Lightly coat inside of 6-8qt slow cooker with olive oil. 
  2. In a large bowl combine uncooked beef, cooked rice, corn, 1.5 cups of cheese, black beans, enchilada sauce, diced tomatoes, cilantro, chili powder, ground cumin, and salt & pepper (to taste). With a spoon, stuff this filling into each pepper. *
  3. Place all peppers in slow cooker. Cover and cook on low 3-4 hours or high 2-3 hours, or until peppers are tender and beef is cooked through. **
  4. Uncover peppers and top with remaining 1/2 cup of cheese. Cover and cook on low 10-20 min, or until cheese is melted. Serve immediately with cilantro sour cream drizzled on top. 

For the Cilantro Sour Cream

  1. Combine all ingredients into food processor or blender until combined. Serve. ***

Notes

* depending on the size of your peppers you may have filling leftover. If so, lightly coat baking dish with olive oil. Bake mixture at 400 degrees for 25-30 min, or until ground beef is cooked through. Use this for: a quick lunch or dinner bowl or throw into tortilla shells for a burrito.

** we cooked the peppers on high for 3 hours 

*** if you don't have a blender or food processor, just chop up cilantro leaves as small as you can, add all ingredients to a bowl, and stop to combine.
