I made this recipe today. i didn’t start it until 5:00 pm. since It was TOo late to use my crock pot, i put A rack in a REGular pot, put the peppers in and cooked them for about 30 Minutes. they turned out perfectly. i have still got some hamburger mixture left. i am going to buy more peppers and try the CRockpot method. thank you for this delicious recipe. i will be making it again.

In reply to Kristy. I use tomato sauce and season it instead of enchilada sauce. I've also used red lentils instead of rice and it comes out great.

I didn’t have any rice or enchilada sauce so I just put some chili sauce in. We will see how it goes. I too am a little concerned about meat cooking all the way. I’ll post the end results. Thank you for this recipe

I always use half ground sirloin and half hot sausage and quinoa instead of rice. I cut up Brussels sprouts and add those as well and usually a hot or Korean sauce and they are yummy..

In reply to Rhonda. Made these today and they turned out delish, so easy too. Maybe next time, I'll heat up another can of enchilada sauce and top them.

Do you cook the rice before putting it in the pepper, or will it cook while in the crockpot?

I use a can of Spanish rice and have for nearly 40 years. That’s my m-i-l’s recipe.

In reply to Sue. I also added 1 C of salsa to the taco/tomato sauce mixture. We like lots of sauciness to spoon over the cooked peppers.

In reply to Rhonda. I replaced water with 1 C taco sauce OR 1 C tomato sauce, whatever I have on hand

Wonder if you could prepare and freeze these? Take them out that night before preparation and thaw in the fridge, then into the crock pot after they’re thawed. Thoughts?

In reply to Shannon Karaba. Shannon, the recipe calls for a 1/2 cup of water to put in the crock pot, so if you're using a smaller crock pot the water may fill up higher. My crock pot is a 7 quart so the water doesn't go high at all. Glad you liked the flavor, though!

Love this idea but should the bell peppers have ended up with liquid 3/4 of the way up…peppers were really soggy. Is this how it should be? Trying to figure out how to eliminate all the liquid. Flavors were great though. Any thoughts?
