Savor Cajun stuffed peppers with minimal prep and let the slow cooker work its magic for rich flavors in hours.
Ingredients:
  • 1 pound (450g) lean ground beef
  • 1 1/2 (225g) cups cooked brown rice
  • 1 1/4 cups (150g) diced yellow onions
  • 1 1/4 (115g) cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 3/4 cup (80g) corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 5 to 6 large bell peppers
Instructions:
  • Prepare the filling: Combine ground beef, cooked rice, onions, 3/4 cup of mozzarella cheese, corn, Cajun seasoning, oregano, sea salt, and paprika in a large bowl. For easier mixing, use a fork if needed. Set aside the filling or keep it covered in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
  • Prepare the bell peppers by cutting off the tops to remove the stems. Scoop out the seeds and membrane to create empty pepper cups perfect for stuffing.
  • Gently fill each pepper with the savory beef and rice mixture, then transfer them into the slow cooker and cover. (For advanced prep, you can also cover and store the stuffed peppers in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before cooking.)
  • Place peppers in the slow cooker: Cook on low for 4 to 5 hours until the meat is cooked through. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top of the peppers and cover for the last 10 minutes of cooking.
  • After removing the peppers from the slow cooker, gently tilt them to drain any excess liquid before serving. Be cautious as the peppers may still be hot.
