Recipe developed for a 3 1/2 to 4 quart cooker to make 4 servings.

 

Combine the rice, beans, garlic, scallions, corn, diced tomatoes, cilantro,

parsley, basil, white pepper, and chili powder in a bowl. Toss to mix well.

Divide the rice mixture into portions, and spoon a portion into each of the

sweet peppers.

 

Pour the tomatoes and water into an electric slow cooker; place the peppers,

upright, in the cooker. Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to 6 hours. Transfer the

peppers to serving plates, and top each with a generous spoonful of hot tomatoes

and shredded cheese.

Cook's note: You can stuff these peppers the night before, if you wish. Place

them in your slow cooker's removable ceramic bowl, cover it, and refrigerate the

entire thing until about 30 minutes before you're ready to start the slow

cooker. Then remove the bowl from the refrigerator and let it sit on the

counter. After 30 minutes, cook the peppers according to the recipe directions.
