Veggie Stuffed Bell Peppers

Veggie Stuffed Bell Peppers

Ingredients:

    4 bell peppers (we used green, yellow, & red)
    1 (15 oz) can of black beans, drained and rinsed
    1/2 cup shredded mexican cheese blend
    1 cup salsa
    1/2 cup uncooked long grain rice
    1 (4 oz) can chopped green chilis
    1 teaspoon chili powder
    1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
    1/4 cup hot sauce (cholula or franks)
    optional: 1/2 cup frozen corn

Method:

    Wash each bell pepper well and then carefully cut the tops off each bell pepper. Remove the seeds and membrane from the pepper while leaving the pepper whole.
    In a large mixing bowl, mix together the rest of the ingredients: black beans, cheese, salsa, rice, green chilis, chili powder, cumin, hot sauce, and corn (if using).
    With a spoon, fill each bell pepper to the brim with the black bean mixture. Place each filled bell pepper into a medium to large sized crock pot and cover. Cook on low for 4 to 6 hours. Serve with hot sauce, salsa, sour cream or your favorite garnish. (I think some Black Bean & Corn Salad would be really yummy as a side dish)
